Husband decides to vent??

So sitting together while the little one is sleeping. We are just chilling he’s playing a video game which is fine with me I play them too! I’m catching up with a friends who are having a baby soon. They are having trouble financially and seem happy but might be stressed about the baby coming but haven’t said much on way or another. I’m talking to my husband about them and what’s going on, this is nothing new when I’m talking to friends.

He freaks out on me says we don’t do things together we don’t talk about fun things anymore, how I’m to busy with the baby and going to back to school full time, and how that’s all I talk about, we don’t just cuddle (I don’t have to stick my dick in you). how he tries to “help” watch the baby so I can do fun things, so I can be how I was before the baby.

What do i do with that? I’m at mom I take care of a toddler full time, i might get 1 day a month for 2 hours my mother in law might watch the toddler so I can study deeply. We don’t have a nanny or house cleaners I do all household chores if not they don’t get done! I know this for a fact because my toddler get sick for 4 days so I couldn’t do any cleaning or washing clothes, not once did he pick up. Other wise I’m studying at night and going to class 3 nights a week. I’m also trying to get a start up off the ground so I can make money for our family and be there for my family on my own schedule.

What do I do with that kind of “blow up” from him???

Does your partner help?

Interested in knowing other people’s dynamics, I have a 2.5 year old n a 8 month old, I do absolutely everything with the kids and all the housework. My partner very rarely interacts with the kids.

Just trying to work out if this is the ‘norm’ as we’ve had countless discussions about this and nothing changes due to it being ‘my role as a mum’

please help I don't know what to do

My 12 yo son has had two girl best friends (we'll call them A and V) since they were babies, basically. We've become friends with their mothers over the years, and we let them have sleepovers at each other's houses quite often. They go to the same school, my son and A, and recently my son started coming home from school very down and irritable. I tried to find out what was wrong, and yesterday he finally confessed that for the past few weeks his classmates had been avoiding him, talking about him behind his back, and yesterday a classmate asked him if it was true that he had masturbated in front of A and V at a sleepover and had touched A while she was sleeping.

I know how this sounds, I was so fucking worried and I didn't know what to do. I asked him if it was true and he completely denied it, crying. I'm a psychologist and I always know when my son is lying, and I believed him.
I spoke with V's mother (who doesn't go to the same school) so she could ask V about it, and after talking to her, she called me to say that V had denied anything like that had happened. She seemed horrified and said that she was even the one who slept in the middle of the three of them and nothing happened. They just watched a movie and went to sleep.
After that, I called A's mother and told her the whole situation, to which she replied, "It's just kids being kids." (Are you fucking kidding?!) She knows her daughter lied, turning all the children against mine, and she didn't apologize or anything. I'm devastated. My son is still being bullied, and V isn't even at the same school to defend him or correct what happened. I don't understand A's mother's reaction, and I don't know what to do anymore.

Advice Needed

I have been with my husband for 6 years, 2.5 years married, and have an 8month old. We have been through a lot in the 6 years we’ve been together - both victims of religious trauma, covid pandemic, miscarriage, moving multiple times, mental health issues, hard high-energy dogs, and now a new baby.

We are a good team and are working on our communication together but lately I keep feeling like my life would be easier without him. He has a hard time keeping a steady job and we keep going into debt on my credit cards. He is a chronic 🍃smoker (I smoke occasionally too but am not addicted), is easily triggered (has started seeing a therapist and is now on meds), and has a hard time being motivated (house chores, etc).

When things are good, they are really good. When things are bad, I wanna just get away and live a simpler life. I feel burnt out and exhausted all the time and don’t want to tip-toe around his emotions anymore.

Is this typical for a marriage after having a new baby? Do we just keep working through this or do we try something like a separation? This is scary for me to even type out but I feel at my wits end.

Am I in the Wrong?

My landlord and her daughter came into mine and my daughter’s room that we are renting today to grab clothes and belonging that she had left here. I received NO verbal, written or otherwise notice of her plans to do so in advance, and was only told later that evening that this had taken place.

When we got “home,” our room was tossed around quite a bit! It’s obvious they had gone through all of the drawers, closets, etc, which also includes our personal belongings, in order to make sure she had all of the things she wanted, I’m assuming.

I later found out that her son (who is a close friend of mine, but still…) had ALSO come into our room, without permission, to grab a couple of his daughters belongings (I had her over to watch her last night). His daughter did not need these items anytime soon, but the way.

I’m feeling pretty uncomfortable with this. In my experience with rental agreements, the landlord always gives prior notice and makes a plan with me/the tenant before coming onto, and especially inside the home. It’s really thrown us off kilter. It’s led us to feel quite uncomfortable in a space that we should feel safe in.

What do you guys think? Is this an invasion of my privacy and against my rights as the tenant, or is the status quo?

Victory post!! Toilet training

So after months and months of toilet training. Bought every toilet training item going and lots of sticker charts. We've finally had our first full day out with underpants on and zero accidents. It took a few tries on the toilet but he did what he needed to do in public toilets and also stayed dry in the car during both journeys. Was about 45 mins drive from our home. He even fell asleep and stayed dry.

We had a huge setback due to our son's medical issues getting worse but we are finally getting somewhere again! I am so incredibly proud of him! 💙💙

Trying to keep my cool, but going nuts 🫠

My husband just started going back to work. We have 2 boys and 1 girl 7 (will be 8 in 2weeks) my youngest son just turned 4 and our daughter will be a month on Wednesday. Not even a week yet, and it’s been so hard trying to keep up. My boys just don’t listen about being quiet. No matter how many times I ask them to close there door and play quietly, they within 5 minutes start again. When this morning was tough because our daughter was having bad gas, and I finally got her to take a nap. I wanted today to be a good and be able to be a super mom, but my patience is already running on low. My husband is really good with our boys, and they listen to him like no problems but when it comes me to, I’m like a joke to them.
