My husband yelled at me today. Literally let it all out and said that I’m dumb and need to get my shit together basically that I never do shit for the house and he does everything but that I resent him because he doesn’t have boob milk to give to our baby and I’m 5 years old because I freeze and shut down in confrontation and can’t make decisions on the spot.
Back story….
I told him a while back I was feeling a little resentment because I was the one doing all the feeds and wake ups at night for the past 2 years now with our baby this year and now toddler last year he tried helping for a few days then it went back to the same…
I’ve been a SAHM he just recently retired and is now home. He gets mad whenever I try and do anything and tells me to just take care of the kids. When he started staying home it was you take care of the baby and I will the toddler which always still left me with both since he did everything else because he doesn’t like how I do anything.
I feel so unheard and unseen and like everything I did tell him was just twisted. He always is right and everyone else is wrong and dumb I have to constantly hear him complaining when we go out about other drivers and people and he constantly tells my oldest she’s dumb which sometimes yes but she’s just a kid at the same time…
I know I need to work on freezing and shutting down and I am very indecisive I am not saying I’m perfect but am I at fault? I’m just really thinking about it all and idk what I’m doing anymore or what to think of any to ing I need an outside opinion….

Without his side and experience of things its hard to know100% but id say anyone that insults a child is probably wrong in all other situations because what the fuck? but I'm mostly commenting cause I'm curious how old is he or successful was his job for him to retire with a baby and toddler?!? Like can I nose in for some logistics and ages?

....he sounds like a grumpy man, who always needs to be right and is in need to "prove" himself by putting others down, including his own child ...
A grown up man who has retired is insulting a child 🤢
