[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are times when I wished I had the guts to say that to my DH in public. He sits there spaced out like a bump on a log when all of the other dads are socializing and I hate it. [/quote] Suffering in silence is no fun. Speak up .. Share that w your husband.[/quote] I speak up in private and he brushes me off or worse, says I shouldn’t tell him what to do. He’s all about appearances and I think if he was called out in public he’d shape up. But then I would be the public bad guy/shrew/nag. Tradeoffs. I’m resigned to being the hands-on parent that talks to other parents and makes nice so my kid won’t be excluded because their parent acts like an aloof jerk.[/quote] This. People get loud when they're being ignored. Some men are just lazy and public humiliation may get through to them when a calm discussion doesn't break through their denial and selfishness. [/quote]
