[quote=Anonymous]This is a tough one, since you added in after your OP that you did all sit down as a family and make these rules together, and now only you are invested into actually following them.

I hate to say it, but this is only causing more stress, your kids are seeing you fight, you left and went to a hotel, they saw that...

You can’t force your husband to change his fundamental beliefs you stated: setting bedtime and screen time limits.

You just cant.

So in your case, I think some personal counseling to deal with the fact that you are going to have to cede control and go along with things you know are bad for your children (I agree w you completely and sounds perfectly reasonable to me).

I would suggest having another meeting and officially “ending” the rules and clarify it is become a worse situation since you started and that you and DH have decided together you won’t be enforcing these anymore. At least they can see their parents having a United front.

Good luck to you OP[/quote]
