[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Instead of blaming your wife, grow up and be a better husband and father. It takes two to have a good marriage and she cannot do it all alone. You blame her for everything and take no responsibility.  [/quote]

I do not believe I am blaming my wife.  Rather, I am trying to do what my daughters therapists suggest is best for DD.[/quote]

I have to agree that I find it doubtful the therapist is putting the blame on your wife here.  Her suggestion was most likely more of an indication that being a caregiver is draining and, like most people, your wife could use some support in coping with the situation and how to best help your daughter.  It was not meant as a condemnation of her parenting.  I think that's how you interpreted the therapist's comments because that's how you view things.  In fact, if I wanted to be the cynic here, another interpretation is that the therapist recognizes your wife is shouldering the burden and you aren't supporting her.  Regardless, focus on what you can do to help your daughter and stop trying to point fingers and rally support for yourself.[/quote]
