My husban is always yelling at our 13 month old son.?

Question

I've told him not to but he keeps doing it. How can i stop him from yelling at our baby? It's getting to the point where i'm sick of dealing with it. It's not like my son is doing anything that he shouldn't be.

Answer 1

Tell him that you are not going to put up w/ that, and that if it continues that you will leave him and that you are dead serious about it.
Becuase that yelling at a 13 month old could potentially become abusive, later on down the line.
he's clearly angry about something else, I'd advise counseling as well.

Answer 2

Unless Sweet Pea is running straight into the path of a speeding car, it's not OK to yell at him. Your husband is being abusive and I believe as your baby gets older the abuse will get worse. I would go to some parenting classes, such as Birth to Three and ask to speak to someone privately about this. I know you love your husband but your son needs you to protect him from his father. He is a helpless baby. He has the right to grow up in a happy home and if he could talk he would tell you that daddy upsets him when he yells at him. You do know that if your husband continues to do this and it escalates then you may have to consider leaving him. I feel bad for you and I hope you can get help for him before he loses his family. p.s. I bet your husband was raised in an abusive home.

Answer 3

ask your husband - why do you yell at our baby? what is he doing that is so wrong? what are YOU doing that gives you the power to pick on an innocent soul. tell your husband he has to learn what his own inabilities are and then he won't find so much fault with a youngster who still hasn't had a chance to develop into a human being. your husband has grown into an adult human being and he has not done a very good job of doing it because if he had, he would not pick it it out on a baby. you husband should be a bigger person than that. he has to find out where his anger comes from and direct in the right direction or else he will destroy his own son. it's a shame how we can destroy the very persons we say we love. i hope he can find his anger and put it in the right direction to get rid of it. your child is NOT the right direction.

Answer 4

A one year old. Who doesn't understand most things. That is child abuse tell him so. If you were to leave him I wouldn't blame you. Chances are big that once you mention the yelling. A judge will grant you full custody. Your the mom if the other parent is acting wrong towards the child. It is your obligation and duty to defend him. Would you let a stranger yell at the baby? For doing baby things?

Answer 5

Your husband sounds like a nutcase to be yelling at a thirteen month old tot.
He needs help, and he needs it now.
Maybe if you kindly ask him to stop by telling him that he is doing emotional and mental damage to the tot's little baby heart.
Your son cannot do anything to deserve that, he is an innocent precious darling and I will pray for your husband to grow up and act like a father and not a monster.

Answer 6

Yeah, he shouldn't yell at a 13 month old baby. Sounds like your husband needs some counseling. Seriously.

Answer 7

Treat him like he does you son. If this doesn't help, and after you've talked to him you have to figure he won't ever stop yelling. I have a friend with an 18 year old son with the same problem. Her son has low self-esteem, amongst other problems.

Answer 8

Oh dear. That poor baby . Is there any way you could get your husband to some sort of parenting class/anger management or child development course? This is abuse and will only get worse. Protect your son at all costs.

Answer 9

Yelling at a 13 month old who doesnt understand much is just plain abuse. He needs counseling. You picked a real winner there.

Answer 10

Pack your bags,set them next to the door, and tell your husband either your leaving or he gets into anger management courses because you will NOT allow his yelling turn into abuse towards your son.
