Is this fair?
I’ve been with my partner for 7 years, and he’s a mechanic who manages his garage. He’s always handled my car—MOTs, servicing, repairs—just like he does for his mum, dad, and friends.
Recently, he told me he feels I don’t respect him or do enough for him (not sure why but anyway)🙄 because of that, he won’t work on my car anymore. My car just failed its MOT and needs two tyres and a shock, so it’s going to be expensive but that’s not really the issue.
What’s upsetting is that he’s refusing to help me at all and says I now have to go through the garage and pay full prices like any other customer. At the same time, he still goes out of his way to help family and friends, even when they’ve treated him poorly in the past.
It just feels hurtful, like he’s punishing me😓 is this fair? I don’t know where he’s getting that I don’t do anything for him, I constantly clean, cook, wash, work, school run/pick up, be with our child while he swans off after work🙄
Jimmy Carr - fat, stupid kids
I'm fully in agreement with this. I think 'stupid' is a bit harsh but yeah, you gotta be a bit strict with your kids and be the one to hold the boundaries.
One of our family members has a son , who has since 3 yr old, been allowed to help himself to the snack cupboard where there is chocolate, crisps any junk food when he is 'hungry'. He drinks fizzy pop and juice.
There is no limit on screen time and he spends most days on his computer in his room.
He is probably 3 times his healthy weight, if not more.
It is really sad to see- he's statistically likely to be bullied for his weight and he can't keep up with kids his age.
They are both big too (but did not grow up that way) I just don't know why you'd want it for your kids.
And yes, you can think I'm being too judgy , but that's a kid's life and your parental choices have had a massive effect on his health and path in life.
