So OP what you're actually saying is it has nothing to do with the object he purchased itself.

It's that according to you, your spouse will be spending so much time doing "whatever" with this object, that he will not be available to do household tasks and chores that you have decided he should prioritize.

If that's correct,  then why put so much emphasis-in fact, why put any emphasis-on the purchase?

Why not just frame your complaint as being that your spouse isn't prioritizing the household chores and task that you would like him to prioritize?  Does it really matter what he purchased?

You're making the argument about the purchase, when it has nothing to do with the purchase.

It's about how you believe your husband should allocate his TIME vs. how you think he should allocate his TIME.

What he purchased is irrelevant.

You want him to help you with child care in some fashion, and he doesn't want to help you.

Why did you make your fight with him about what he purchased, rather than about the fact that you feel he isn't pulling his weight?[/quote]
