[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I dont know maybe I'm missing something. But I dont think this is a huge problem like others have said...[b]basically pack up and leave[/b]. I think that only you know if its a dangerous situation or not. I think that we all loose our cool every now and then. Your DH seems to just expect too much from your LOs, [b]just keep reminding him they are only toddlers and to lower his expectations[/b].  I dont know if you are planning on having more kids but that IS something I would think twice about. [/quote]

If she leaves her husband he will most likely get visitation meaning he will still be treating their children this way.

Op, I think your husband could definitely benefit from both counseling and classes/books on child development. It really sounds like he is ill informed when it comes to what to expect and not expect from small children. If he has ever been either physically abusive or verbally abusive to you, that would probably signify something more serious...not saying you should definitely up and leave him but the problem is probably more severe than just expecting too much from the kids.

I wouldn't tell him about what your parents said. But if you are close with your mom don't feel bad about talking with her about how you agree with her. I don't think she's out of line in expressing her opinion. [/quote]
