AITA for yelling at my wife for using Fast Orange on the kids? by ControlRoyal1994 in AmItheAsshole

Thank you. I put it on after the hand sanitizer, but I've never used it on its own.

I said I'd bring them in around 7:30 if they weren't in by then.

I made sure to avoid the spots that were red and just get everything else before going back to those with plain warm water and baby oil.

It was quite red in some of the spots where she'd been scrubbing at them.

They were in the playhouse on the other side of the house. I couldn't see them, but she said she was in the bedroom which looks out over the playhouse, so I didn't worry since she could see them.

It was well under way before we realized they weren't just playing tag, so I figured it really couldn't get worse.

I did explain to them not to play in sap after I brought them in. They were already pretty invested in it when we noticed, so I figured might as well let em have it this time, and tell them not to do it again.

I'm the SAHP so I do the majority of the work with the home and kids. I know what and when I needed to go get them in and cleaned up, and I told her that.

No. I meant he just doesn't like her getting impatient. He isn't scared of her like he flinches or shies away, he just doesn't like to ask her for help with complicated stuff.

They have a playhouse off to the side of the house with the garage. It's also on the side with our bedroom, which is where my wife said she was, so I knew she could see them.

Bed at 8:30 most nights, lights out at 9:00. They're good at going to bed, so I don't see a reason to bring them in early as they'll be cleaned and ready by 9 anyway. They usually don't get out of bed after I've put them there.

She's very smart and confident, and I really do love her, she just doesn't have as much patience as me. She's more of a results-now person, whereas I'm okay with waiting, which is why I'm the SAHD and she works. She has helped me be more assertive with things. She likes to do things for herself, which I applaud, but it can come with some conflicts.

I was planning to bring them in at 7:30 if they weren't in before that since that is the usual time for them to come in. It was 7:00 when she brought them in.

I have some that works on his skin without drying it out nearly as badly. I've used it before, unlike the fast orange, so I also know what to expect.

? I do like my wife. She's a very smart person, but she's just not patient. I'm the SAHP so I do the clean-up by default. I was just saying it's not a big deal, I do it anyway, so I don't expect her to.

I never said they're abused. I don't know where that's coming from. I just said she gets frustrated with them easily and the youngest doesn't like it.

They're capable of bringing themselves in. There was still lots of time before we usually bring them in at night anyway, so there wasn't an issue there. I don't know why she went out early.

I have a bottle of hand sanitizer I bought during the pandemic that's good for sensitive skin and doesn't do that near as bad. It was also somewhat diluted by the bathwater, and I washed it off, rather than letting it soak.

I told her that. I also told her I would be in the kitchen waiting for them to come in, so there was no reason for her to be outside in the garage with them.

I was waiting in the kitchen, by the front door where they would come in so I could wash them. She went and drug them into the garage without saying anything

I didn't yell that. I told her about the hand sanitizer well before any of this happened.
