[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op wasn't going on a girls' trip. If she was, her husband wouldn't have been invited. The trip is coed. This thread reminds me of the woman with the newborn who's husband wanted to go on a college reunion weekend. People all over that thread were saying he "shouldn't leave her alone with a newborn". OP knows that for whatever reason, her husband can't cope well with a young toddler and young preschooler. How is this any different then a woman who "shouldn't be left alone with a newborn?" In a perfect world, parents should be able to care for their offspring no matter the age of said offspring. Reality doesn't work that way. Toddlers are tough, they shit their pants, can't talk, and are incredibly mobile. They have the needs of babies and the needs of children, and they have these needs at the same time. I say this as someone who is expecting my second child and who is looking forward to it. Also OP's trip is scheduled when daycare will be open which means that her husband probably has to work during that time. I can see why he'd feel put upon. OP gets to go off on a coed vacation while the oh so dangerous husband is expected to miss a once in a lifetime trip, go to work, and be the sole parent on deck. Add to this, he was given the fuck buddy treatment for an anniversery. 24 hours at the beach is barely any time at all. That's what you do for a guy or girl you're fucking but don't really care about. An anniversery is just a day, but so is the day your mortage payment is due. Skip it and when your bank calls, tell them "it's just a day"[/quote] Whoa skippy -- whether or not she should have gone on the trip isn't the point. His reaction was inappropriate and abusive no matter what kind of trip she was planning. [/quote]
