[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  Thank you everyone for the helpful responses.  I realize how horrible I sound talking about my husband, but we really are at a breaking point.  Our kids show no signs of special needs (both are too young to even know). We have discussed this hypothetically and he is very anti-labels, doesn't believe the vast majority of kids diagnosed have anything wrong with them, thinks kids these days need stricter parents, etc. I plan to start looking into individual therapy.  Any recommendations in the DC area would be appreciated! I also hear all you about focusing on the good qualities and making it easier for him to succeed by keeping lists, reminders, constant communication.  I think my biggest annoyance is that at times I feel like am dealing with another child (but one who is also always angry with me).  Although a lot of his thought processes and personal views make no sense to me, if he didn't need me to cosign/validate them, I think we could be in a much better place. I can listen, I can agree to disagree. But he wants and needs me to agree with him.  And this is not just political stuff, but also things having to do with our children that I am just completely against.  [/quote]

You may consider moving to another state for a while, fresh starts can revive or kill marriages but it’s worth a try. You two have been through a lot in last few years, from trump wave, pandemic, pregnancies, infant/toddler care etc. Give it a try to smartly improve dynamics before calling it quits. [/quote]
