How long have you two been apart? It sounds like you are both connected emotionally and the connection is conflicted. (Therapists call this "negative intimacy.") Can you see a therapist to give you skills to navigate? Would he see someone with you? When your child enters K and there are academics (it starts then, reading, etc.) you two are going to have to work together and communicate well. [/quote]

This is true. A while back he agreed to therapy I would need to speak with him again to see if he is still up to this. Honestly at this point I enjoy not talking to him. Arguing all the time is draining. I mean its silly arguments I could say the sky is blue he will say what makes you think its blue thats stupid why would you say that. That is how silly the arguments are. Communicating with him is more of him talking at me and not to me. His words are always harsh and he so arrogant. ex. His work hours changed on his weekend and like always he did not tell me. So when the weekend came around that Friday at 5pm when I had plans he said I do not get off until 7pm. I said how is that possible when you have to pick up the LO. He told me in these words. "I cannot pick him up and thats what it is. Just deal with it."

My thing is this that could of happened differently at I know that he knew before 5pm that he was not going to be able to pick up LO. You tell me at the last minute and then you are so arrogant about "Just deal with it."

Its called communication. Had you called me and said hey I know its my weekend I am so sorry I am not getting off until 7pm can you please pick up LO and I will get him from you when I get off.  Its simple things. [/quote]
