So tired of my husband acting like his job is just being the financial provider and sometimes the enforcer when it comes to the kids getting in trouble. He is starting to be like his dad where he expects me to cook, clean, and take care of the kids by myself and do my school work while he just sits around and watches tv or play his video games. It just makes my anxiety and stress levels so much higher and he thinks its just because I am being lazy. He doesn't understand that I am about to break. Just wish he would understand. #neededtorant #stayathomemom #collegemom

Tell him! Speak up! Be assertive! My husband knows his role with my kids because I'm very strong about communication. I'm also a very strong will so he has to hear me out because I'm so stubborn lol

I hear yea, same thing, I speak up all the time and my husband gets all pissy because “I’m telling him what to do”...stay strong and do your best, I can’t imagine the stress with all that’s on your plate.

@gabby.pineda I've tried. I am going to still tell him anyways but I feel like he is just going to shut me out again.

@roth1321 last night I had some sort of anxiety or panic attack trying to get my youngest to sleep because he would just cry and cry and my daughter was yelling instead of going to sleep and my husband just went to sleep. Didn't help or anything. So I put my youngest in his bed where he was safe and went to the living room and sat and tried to slow my breathing down even though my youngest was crying. Then my husband got up and got him out and tried to put him to sleep but when i went back he gave him back to me which was fine because I had calmed down but husband acted mad at me. He thinks I am being mean or idk what but sometimes I just 5 minutes to myself. The only break I get is when he gets home and I go to the store by myself maybe once every other week. Its like he gets to pick when he is a father. While me I never get one minute to myself. Ever.

@mommyof.3 maybe you should get a partime job and let him handle bedtime. This will show him how hard it is.

@gabby.pineda I can't. I breastfeed my youngest and he will not take any kind of bottle or sippy cup. I am also doing classes.

@mommyof.3 oh he's not 1 yet huh. What kind of classes?

@gabby.pineda I am doing a certificate program so I can have a stay at home job. It takes up a lot of time because its a medical program and I barely have any time when I am taking care of my kids by myself.

@mommyof.3, I hear you about the anxiety thing, so hard...Im sorry your feeling that way, and that you don’t get more support, I know it tough, the thing I keep telling myself is that it’ll get better as they get older.
