[quote=Anonymous]OP, playing with your toddler in the playroom for six hours a day is something you should cut back on. It's essentially a waste of your time and productivity, and gives him a twisted notion of the world and his place in it.

Fit him into your life. Take him on your errands during the day. Fit him into the household chores routine during the day. Yes, trying to do things with a toddler drags everything out and is infinitely harder, but it's the healthy way to do things.

Are you and your husband happy and content with your level of disconnect? It's how you both grew up, so it's what you know, but is it working for you now? Are you both introverts? Before the child, did you do things together?

Your husband wanting more alone time is HIS problem to solve, not yours. When he's gone on work travel half the weekends, doesn't he get alone time then, in his off hours, when he has no wife and kid around? And when he's home on weekends, he does sports at night? He can't have it all. You're a single parent on the weekends he's gone? What more can he ask of you?

When do you and he connect? Do you have a sex life? Or are you both okay with the way things are between you?

I say all this with sympathy, because I know how intense and difficult it is to get through the baby/toddler years with no outside help or family. [/quote]
