[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get grumpy as a parent when I need a break. OP, if your DH has ADHD, he probably doesn't have the executive functioning skills to figure out how to get himself a regular break. You may need to help him. What did he do to unwind before kids? When does he seem happiest? When does he connect with the kids? With you? Is the morning slog the worst? If so, get a nanny or au pair to help with mornings and send him to the gym / to get coffee / to work early / chilling in bed / to read the news. Hiring help is so much cheaper than a divorce. [/quote]Just reread and see that mornings are better. Swap my suggestion and hire evening help. Send him to the gym two nights a week or the library or to watch sports. When he says he needs a break, he means it. Get yourself a break too. [/quote]
