My boyfriend, my kids andmyself all live together. Problem is, my boyfriend makes a living playing online poker. When the kids are around, he expects them to be seen and not heard. Thats tough! They are 9 and 6 and my 6 year old is a little hyperactive. My boyfriend takes out his frustration on them when he is isn't able to play well when they are around and he's trying to play. Our house is open space so everything is heard from where he is playing. On top of all this, we've been having work done on our house so he's been having to get up early and not been able to play as much as he's used to. He usually plays nights when the kids are asleep but he hasn't ben able to do that because of the renovations. I'm stuck because I feel that when my kids are around, I have to keep them extremely quiet or they will get on his nerves. What can I do?
