[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand the issue.  Your worry, I assume, is that your child will be left unattended if he has an issue?  But that didn't happen today - you were there.  Unless you're saying that both of you need to ski behind the kids?

It sounds like you were just frazzled by your kid's yard sale and getting hit yourself.  [/quote]

op - my preference would be that we always agree who will ski behind ds OR that if that hasn't happened, he keeps close enough to be accessed in event of situation (even slightly downhill). It's the assumption that I will be on lookout that bothers me. [/quote]

OP this is what being the default parent means. It’s hard to unsee once you see it. This sounds harsh but you basically have to fight like a dog to make sure you get what’s yours (what your DH takes without a second thought). That means your DH might have to listen to you yell a little, poor baby. And it also means that in some cases where failure is not an option (like safety skiing) you have to accept being the default. Then you take the family credit card to the ski shop and buy yourself a new hat. Then you leave the kids on screens with DH in the hotel room while you enjoy a drink at the bar. See what I mean?[/quote]

This x a million. My kids are now in college but this was my life. I had to fight like a dog to get my DH to fully parent with me. It was exhausting but less exhausting than doing EVERYTHING[/quote]
