I feel like my husband took a low blow.
Backstory I didn’t get my license until last year before I turned 25 (ik crazy af but my parents and him thought I didn’t need it) anyways I just got my own car in February. I’m still getting used to driving with my four kids by myself in a town we just moved to in December. I have diabetes and sometimes my blood sugars drop when im anxious.
We were listening to miss independent I was joking by saying I was independent. He looked at like you got to be kidding me. He looks at me says “ you definitely are not independent when you can’t even take all four kids with you to a Drs appt” I look at him like he has 6 heads I wanted to say he was stupid af for wanting me to take four kids with me to an appt that was urgent with one of our kids.

I’m sorry but that was extremely rude and honestly mean… he knows you have health issues and get anxious easily..plus it’s really hard to have any kids / babies in the car while driving! And the fact he assumed you would take all four with you?! That’s a lot on one mama! I know you could do it cause you already proved you got the license, the car…etc don’t let his discouragement get to you!! You are doing amazing with these first steps!! I did t get my license til I was 25 either and I’m only 30 and hate driving ( we live in a huge city ) … I’ll drive across the street to dollar tree and to places if I absolutely have too lol … it can definitely be nerve racking to drive let alone adding kids to the mix so please babes don’t get upset at his side remarks!!! You’re doing great

I would tell him to politely eat 💩. Sounds like he's trying to control you in a way and seems irritated you're gaining independence now. I tried moving away from my family and I realized I needed my family more than my boyfriends so I can have my support for my and my kids. Good luck to you mama 🤍
