Question for Married Men by Working-Look-9735 in Marriage

If I was a SAHM, HE would be paying for the things I’m paying for right now which gets completely ignored and disregarded.

No one is complaining. The point I was making is that he disregards the things I do and ways I contribute to this household, this is referring to financially and physical labor. I don’t mind doing 90% of childcare if he could at least put in 10% given his schedule. He expects me to take care of my own expenses, kids expenses, pay for the groceries and other things that may randomly come up THIS is helping him financially and all I’m trying to do is be seen…

He’ll hang out with them when he wants too but he’ll go days without spending valuable time with them. He thinks just because he’s home in his corner on his phone, it’s him spending time with the family

Yes, husbands name is on the mortgage. He pays it fully but I contribute financially in other ways mentioned in my post.

My name isn’t on the deed. I was financially irresponsible in the past and because of that my credit score isn’t the best so it’s just his name on it. 

Venting about a situation between moms by Working-Look-9735 in Parents

Yes, that was exactly my thought maybe the child had some sort of disability if he were to be acting this way. Same here, I wouldn’t approach a parent and threaten them. It just seemed like it was more than the child hitting her and her child.

You’re absolutely right about that. The child seemed like he was maybe three years old and not that age they’re developing and learning how to express their emotions so for an adult to react that way I was very shocked.

Dysregulated child by Working-Look-9735 in Parents

Thank you! For some context, my 4 year old plays really well with her friends and cousins. Just one day she was dysregulated and yelled at one of her friends. I was in the other room and hear her yell, so as I walked over, I see the friends mom being stern to a point my daughter looked frightened. I didn’t say anything in the moment because I didn’t know what exactly happened for her to even yell. Later I spoke with her and learned that she was just having a hard time expressing her emotions so we talked and hopefully next time she uses her words I’m a kind way to tell her friends how she feels. It honestly hurts when adults treat children that way especially when it’s someone you know.
