[quote=Anonymous]“but this one is just many years long so he says he can’t handle it” What does this mean? Does he want to divorce and give you full custody? Parenting is very hard and no one knows what kind of parent they will actually be until they live it, and no one knows what type of dc they will give birth to. But, I do think for most of us who willingly decided/ planned for this, we have to do the right thing and put dc feelings before ours. So, your dh really needs to reframe his thoughts. I’d say like even set a timer of 15 min and can only focus on the positive of being a dad/ being with them. Start small and hopefully it grows. Our last just left for college. I’d love a young couple to ask me to babysit a night/weekend day ( for free!) I absolutely was not the most perfect mom, and neither was my dh the perfect dad, but I guess the difference was that we did find moments of pure joy each day - 5 min snuggle, walk in the park, blowing bubbles, making cookies, etc. For me, those moments of joy made all the rest of it/ hard work worth it. Wishing your family well.[/quote]
