[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with disengaging, which I have done in the past, but it's hard to do when:
1. you are not working or earning much money.
2. the debate-loving spouse just itches for a fight all the time and picks ANYTHING you did or did not do, as the basis for a fight.

This is my situation and honestly as soon as I recover from my medical thing, I will put my foot down and demand we go to counseling or get a divorce.

OP here. My heart goes out to you. I earn very good money and could easily support a family on my own. I do not take lightly the havoc that being shuttled between divorced parents wreaks on a child, however, and DH really is a wonderful parent. That is why I stay for the most part. DH is someone who just doesn't know how NOT to argue. He is contrary and even when he gets his way, he will change his mind arbitrarily so he has something new to start an argument about. I honestly think it is a mix of selfishness, rudeness, and control issues. He should have been told no and broken of this need to control others as a child, but his parents took the easy way out and just indulged him.
