I used to live with my husband until we separated. But we’re still seeing eachother and not living together. It’s a long story. If I decide to live with him again, my daughter’s going to take his side and tag team with him against me. Like when we were living together, and I tell my daughter it’s time to eat, her father encourages her to talk back at me, by saying, “Tell mommy that you’ll eat later because you’re playing a game with daddy.” Also, when I used to put my daughter to sleep, her father walked into her room, while I washed the dishes, and wake her up… during school nights. His excuse was that he went in to give her a goodnight’s kiss to tuck her in bed.
Fine but why not do it before I put her to sleep. He laugh and never answer my question. No matter how many times I tell them that it’s not funny and it hurts me not to be heard and respected, they say sorry and then they do it again. Sometimes he used to amuse himself by telling her to hit mommy on the butt, while I washed the dishes. It bothered me and I let them know that. He answered by saying, “Come on, we’re just playing.” Of coarse he laughed. But I don’t find it funny. Once a week I can handle it, but not everyday. There are certain things I put up with, but not the constant tease of humiliation and disobedience. I’m glad I’m free of him now…but I’m still having trouble controlling my daughter. Whenever I tell her, “Let’s do homework…it’s time to eat….Let’s get ready for a bath, sleep, etc.” She would say “No, I don’t want to. Don’t you see I’m busy playing with my toys…I’m too tired”. She also wishes we live with daddy again.
