[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you sound incredibly supportive and he's fortunate. Please don't forget that YOU are a person in this family too, with your needs. At the risk of sounding cold (but it's easy for me to do since I'm a stranger) but I think you might want to start telling him he needs to commit to getting a handle on his issues rather than burdening you with them and seeking permission to do things he knows aren't in his or his family's best interest, because your support tank is running dry and your resentment tank is starting to fill. And you mention that you have kids?! Kids pick up on more than we think. Have you checked in with them about their joyless, do nothing father? Separation might be best for everyone involved.

Thanks :) I wouldn’t say he’s joyless around the kids. It’s more like, I’m trying to be supportive by letting him sleep in, which means I care for the kids all morning. Which is fine once in awhile, but every weekend is wearing on me. [/quote]
