Me and my husband have a nearly 3 year old and a 4 month old
The only day we get as a family is a Saturday because every Sunday is taken up with him at golf. He promised when we had our second he would do it every other weekend. That happened for aboir a month then back to old habits.
I never tell him he can't go but I will make it obvious I am not impressed every week. Now my son is old enough to be upset when daddy goes off to golf its becoming hard.
Am I right in being annoyed or shall I just let him get on with it? I don't want to stop him doing things he enjoys, it makes him happy. I think even if I tried to stop him he'd still go.

I wouldn’t personally see it as you’re stopping him.. he promised to go every other week and then broke that promise and continues to do so 🤷🏻♀️ I’d argue it’s all about being fair aswell.. if he’s able to go to golf 1 Sunday you should get the next Sunday to do something you want, you’re just as important. When you decide to have children you have to sacrifice things xx

Making it obvious you aren't impressed is probably being missed. You have to say the issue.
If he would still go then I'd be telling him that he's breaking his promise and prioritising himself over his family. As says if he gets a day to himself you should too.

I'd confront the issue directly & talk to him about it. Yall are in a season of life where sacrificing is the norm & no full time parent gets a day off to themselves every single week when there is no other time for family time. (Not to mention that im assuming you dont have the luxury of a weekly day off because if not im sure this would be a topic).
