It is extremely uncommon in the US, are you writing from another country where men have more of a property interest in their wives?
I’m in the US, I’m just saying that it’s not that uncommon, it does happen thought not often.
I know zero teenagers who married 40 year old men. Is the rest of your marriage a nightmare or just this one vacation?
I honestly don’t get the outrage here. If he were 70, sure, but he was only 40, which seemed too young to me even back then—come on. I was 18 when I got pregnant, but I wasn’t super young, and we were already talking about a long-term marriage. We just went with the flow, and when we found out I was pregnant, of course we were excited. Age was never a big deal for us. I loved my husband for who he was, not because of anything superficial. OP
What teenager thinks 40 year olds are TOO YOUNG for her?

And This isn’t the first time that he’s taken a vacation with his ex-wife, he’s done it before. My husband doesn’t allow my son a vacation this year, and I do not know why. He just doesn’t care and says he will be busy, and doesn’t have anytime. OP
Do you have a job? Why does your husband get to decide whether you and your son get to go on vacation?
He also had divorced his previous wife when his kids were teens/tweens. Father of the year here.
She got pregnant at 18 with a 40 year old’s 4th kid. I would bet my life’s savings she has never had a real job.

You should never have married him or had a child with him. He's a jerk.
I am not criticizing the age gap, BTW. I have a similar age gap with my husband, who has always prioritized our kids and me.
Wow, you are all over the place. You're saying OP's husband is a jerk for wanting to spend time with his family of origin? Good men don't abandon their families like your husband did, just to be clear.
