[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I would be mad, but you must recognize that you have created this monster. From the minute your kid came home from the hospital, you needed to establish an expectation that you were partners in parenting. Being partners doesn't have to mean an exact 50-50 split, by the way. It does mean that your husband should be able to put the kid to bed solo. He should be as familiar with the normal bedtime routine as you, and he should do it. Again, one parent might not do things EXACTLY the same way, but there should be a general consensus of expectation. You've allowed 3 years of learned helplessness get entrenched in your husband's dealings with your son. When he returns home, you two need to hire a babysitter, and find a calm time to go out and discuss this.[/quote] +1[/quote]
