[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's rude to say you need a break in front of the kid. Everyone needs quiet down time. Or just explain that you need a break from chores. Kids can know that adults need breaks from caregiving.[/quote] Why didn't OP discuss the gameplan for the weekend on Friday night? Why is she several hours behind with a work assignment and now it "has to" be finished at home on the weekend? If OP addressed these issues directly, it might turn out she is very disorganized and wastes a lot of time during the week at work when she should be getting her work done.[/quote] Scroll up to 15:56. Why is it okay for the DH to be a whiner about doing a little bit of parenting? He should have planned the weekend on Friday night if doing childcare on Sat afternoon bothers him so much. The real reason he is pouting is because OP called attention to his laziness. It doesn't matter how carefully she phrases it to tiptoe around his sensitive feelings. The bottom line is he is lazy, he knows he's lazy, and he's trying to turn the blame on her for acknowledging reality in words he doesn't like. But there are no words he would like.[/quote]
