[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes 100% right here with you. DH is newly diagnosed, doesn't have the tantrums, just shuts down and ignores what he wants and relentlessly pursues his own issues. He has a constant need to control myself and our kids. He completely ignored Easter, certainly didn't help with any of it, and was just obsessively focused on DC's roblox time over that 24 hours. He wants the "bad" behavior of his kids gone, and thinks I have a magic wand to do so. Has no actual parenting solutions. Meanwhile, he comes down as such a hammer on them. I'm worried for them if I go (not physically), but am finding it harder to see how I stay. I'm sorry OP, have you found any good resources?

+1, I hear you. I have to do all of the strategic thinking and planning and reminding because he will shut down and pursue only what concerns him. He will micromanage ridiculous things but miss the big picture stuff. Doesn't care about holidays or kids activities or vacations unless they involve something he is specifically interested in. Believe it or not, he's more interested in going to Disney World than our kids are, so that's where we're going on our next vacation. In the future, I imagine him sitting around all day watching movies only he's interested in and listening to music that only appeals to him. At that point, either I stand there like a fool trying to rationalize the situation-- maybe join the married but living separately crew?-- or find someone who cares to ask what movie I'd like to see.
