[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is part vent, part question.  DH and I have this policy that we avoid scheduling non-family/non-couple things over the weekend starting from Friday evening.  The policy is more for him because he works very long hours and hardly sees DD during the week.  He asked me about getting together with his buddies last night as a good friend is in town this weekend.  Saturday morning, he takes 2 year old DD to gym class ([b]it's their one daddy/daughter time of the week)[/b] so he promised that he would try to get home early, like 1 a.m.

He ended up coming home at 6 a.m.  He could barely get himself out of bed so didn't get DD out of bed until 40 minutes before class starts.  They were really rushed and he stopped her while she was eating breakfast and she was not happy about it.  I suggested a couple times (nicely) they skip gym class given they were so rushed and I could see it was bugging DD.  They rushed off and DH has been texting me since what a waste it was to go to class because DD won't participate (which is highly unlike her), she's doing poorly etc.

I'm kind of like WTF.  If anything, it's DH's fault if DD is having an off morning.  But true to form, he never takes responsibility for his actions.  He doesn't go out on Friday evenings, but will often stay up really late reading or watching TV so that he's exhausted on Saturday morning.  This morning was the worst, but it's not unusual for him to be in a bad mood and implying that DD is being "bad" (though he won't use those words) when she's just being a normal 2 year old and it's his exhaustion that's making him so intolerant of her behavior.

I know there are worse things a dad can do.  Should I just let it slide and be happy he's willing to have this daddy/daughter time (which he wasn't before)?  Or [/quote]

Is anyone else hung up on this part?? It seems so much worse than what time he got home last night![/quote]

Yes, me too. I'm also hung up on the fact that OP doesn't allow her husband or herself any option to socialize outside of the family on weekends. This whole post is a big WTF for me. [/quote]
