and get all the information and register our daughter. We are to leave our two children with grandma for about an hour or so while we attend this registration class. My husband just called and asked if I can go by myself b/c his mother is not feeling well. Okay, I can understand that but there will be other adults home besides grandma who can help watch the kids for possibly 2 hours at the most. There are two other grandchildren in the house besides my own. I can go alone but I would like my husband to go with me in case he has questions that I might not have thought of etc etc. My husband's reaction is that he will stay with the children and I go. My reaction is that why is it so hard for him to leave our kids for 2 hours at grandmas even though she's not feeling well, but there will be other adults to help watch our kids. His reaction, "take care of our own kids". p.s we don't usually leave our kids ever with grandma unless absolutely necessary. Am I being selfish, stubborn etc?

Your making a mountain out of a mole hill. Leave It alone and go without him. Your daughters education isn't going to suffer because he isn't going. Pick your fights this one isn't worth it

Sounds like he is more grown up than you. If they are your kids, they are your issue. Grandma is not feeling well, you don't throw 2 more kids onto the pile she has. Just because there are other adults there, you would still be exposing your kids to whatever Grandma has as well. You will be fine on your own going to registration. Or if you prefer, since you are worried about forgetting to ask things, ask him to go and you watch the kids. Either way works and you are not putting the pressure on grandma to feel like she HAS to take care of your kids for this. Anytime you get a sitter (family or not) there is going to be a chance that person gets ill or something comes up that they can't do it. That's the way life is. There are alot worse things in life that can and probably one day will go wrong. Just live with this and get past it. It's not a big deal.

He doesn't want to troubel grandma or anyone else with your children. There's nothing wrong with that. Parents sacrifice things every day because of their children. You are over reacting. Go get the information and share it with your husband. He will be there, caring for the children when you get home.
Your children are your responsibility and not someone else's so if grandma is ill, then it is the right thing for your husband to do.
Sweetie, with all the other horrible problems that go on in marriages these days, be grateful that you have a man wonderful enough to help you with your kids.

i'm quite stoic so i visit't truly make and describe thoughts realistically if i do not do a touch study. i'm also no longer a reliable speaker so writing communication instantly without it sounding awkward is likewise a project. except that, plot holes, a number of that are glaring on the first reread. I plan to conquer the first by technique of appearing some study, watch video clips of how human beings react even as feeling a particular emotion. Then i exploit that for describing in my tale. the 2d, usually after a lot questioning (and rewriting), i could arise with something sensible sufficient. So i will favor to do a touch labor on that. the third I conquer by technique of rereading my plot and over and once more suitable until eventually i visit't discover yet another plot hollow. Then I rewrite it. BQ: i do not truly placed a lot emotion in it, more suitable usually only description. Like this: "He confirmed a contact of sadness." or "Anger flashed in her eyes.". So it truly is quite usually only consumer-friendly description of thoughts. i do not truly describe them too properly in detail.

Yeah, you're being selfish and stubborn. You're making a big event out of registering for Kindergarten. It's not like you're buying a car.

You are making a mountain out of a mole hill. Life has much more important things to stress about. Chill out and go alone.

I disagree w/the first answer. This is a major thing and your hubby should be there. I would just bring the kids. Forget the babysitter. That way, hubby can't say no then. All of you's can go!

Can't anyone from his family come over to your house to watch them? Hire a sitter?
