[quote=Anonymous]OP here. a lot of this resonates and is both hard and helpful. Yes, divorce is not a solution. DH would see the kids still and it would be without me. I like the phrasing someone offered about "taken separately, these incidents are not big, but together they are a pattern of behavior." One of the great surprises of my life is how hard i find it to ask for things in my marriage. Calling this out, calling it abusive, asking for intervention and change, this is all so hard. Past conversations about his parenting have gone very poorly. he is deeply offended and defensive. i back off. I think he should stop drinking and go to AA. i think he might be amenable to this ask, since his own dad did it. I am not yet ready or able to say that i would burn it all down if he doesn't change or get help. [/quote]
