Wow! Just WOW! I think the kid, and maybe you, Op both have some deeper issues going on here. I get being angry and not wanting to give Father's Day gifts. Are you two never going to forgive him for words? Is there no room for discussion? Apologies? Are you and your child going to let his words eat away at your soul? Are you not going to buck up and tell DH where he put his insults? You and your kid are a bit much. |
Next time long before your DH will have an event, talk to him and say it in a matter of factly manner .. It happened many times, it is a pattern, it can not happen again, it will not happen today, and if it will, then YOU not HIM will get a coat and walk out of the house and HIM not you will have to deal with a child in the state he leaves. If he indeed pulls it,
do as you say, walk out and leave im to deal with the son making him leave the date and having to deal with the upset child. This should fix it. |
