You said your children will be happier but then you said your toddler loves his daddy. Can you please explain…

I would stay with him, especially if he’s the breadwinner and you stay home all day. If you work as well and have a career then it’s a different story. If he works all day long faithfully to support his family show him appreciation. His participation in your baby at night is probably because he has such long hours at work and doesn’t want to do more work when he comes home.

Sounds like postpartum depression and you just gotta wait it out for it to go away.
