[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been working through similar issues and you are wrong. It undermines him as a parent. [/quote]

I know that’s how DH feels but I’m having a hard time understanding why this undermines him as a parent.

I did not ask in front of the kid. Kid was not upset in response to a consequence. He was just super tired at the end of a long day and lost it (which is not developmentally inappropriate for a kindergartener).  Nothing I did contradicted anything DH said or did with the kids. He said good night to the crying child, and I went in, spent a little more time with him so he calmed down, and he went to sleep.

DH basically told me, I want you to let our kid cry by himself in bed, which seems unfair. [/quote]

NP. You did not undermine him. To me it's strange that you would even ask him whether you should come in. You are the mother,  trust your instincts. You know best. Of course you go in to comfort ab upset child. Your H should be grateful for you stepping up and help get the children ready for bed. His reaction is weird and shows that he is insecure.[/quote]
