[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Thanks everyone. This is my first time posting on the relationship forum. I'm amazed by all the responses! It's true that DH is not uniquely qualified to handle this problem. I just wanted him to. I shouldn't have even asked him to and instead just done it myself. Guest bedroom is on another floor, far from us. I can't move DD there. [b]I just wanted DH to handle this because I'm overwhelmed doing everything for our life in addition to my demanding job.[/b] [/quote] The challenge here is apparently your DH isn’t handy and you already had a specific way you did NOT want the problem fixed. With space heaters as you’ve seen on the forum, there are people that have a gazillion safety features plus a video monitor that feel like that is a viable solution so it isn’t as though there is 100% agreement in the parenting world that your husband’s solution was wrong. It’s not like he suggested leaving a toddler home alone which everyone knows is unsafe and illegal. If you are off loading something, give him a choice between things that don’t have a preference how it is done. Now the bigger issues is if you have given your husband a choice between things you don’t care how they are done like laundry or bedtime duties for the toddler or having Saturday versus Sunday morning on deck with the little one and your DH won’t commitment to anything or doesn’t follow thru with his commitment, then that’s a different problem and I can see being done.
