[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm with you, but if he had a long day and is suddenly saddled with solo bedtime, I can see why he would be annoyed. [/quote]
So, he's taking his anger out on the kids by taking them out when it's their bed time, especially the 5 yr old, just to prove a point?   And then, if the 5 yr old is cranky while out, will he get mad at the 5 yr old?  Poor kid.

You're projecting, dear. [/quote]
?  Projecting what?  My DH has never done or said anything like this.  I think you are the one projecting.[/quote]

Okay, then you're just clueless. Nowhere did she say her spouse was going to get mad at the kid. You're making up scenarios that haven't happened because a kid is out of the house at 7:30 during the summer. [/quote]
Did I say he did get mad?  No, I said "will he get mad".  It was a rhetorical question.  Reading comprehension fail.

OP said the 5 yr old was in PJs, ready for bed, and looked tired.   Doesn't matter if it was 7:30pm in summer.  A child's sleep needs doesn't change magically in the summer. My 7 yr old still goes to bed around 8, even in the summer, because DC needs the sleep, as do all kids.[/quote]

"poor kid" implied you think he would, and again, there's no reason to even suggest it except to project.

But whatever. My kid goes to bed early too but I'm not going to throw a hissy fit if he's up at 7:30. Have a drink and chill out. You AND OP. [/quote]

Sometimes, on the weekends, we stay out well past kids' bedtime.  But, I wouldn't drag my 5 yr old out when he's tired just to prove a point to my spouse.  Yes, "poor kid" because his dad was being a douche for dragging his tired 5 yr old into a bad situation just to prove a point.

I haven't taken sides in the argument in terms of whether OP or her DH was in the right.  My thought was for the 5 yr old.  [/quote]
