Im gonna throttle DH, such an a$$

in 2nd Trimester

So early with the wills ...

Now, we come home from our parents tour of the hospital, and SS (15) is on the internet. And left all his dirty dishes in the sink.

I tell SS to get off the computer and go wash his dishes. DH comes in and tells him, no Ill do it. I explain to DH that SS is 15, and we are not maids for him, that he is old enough to do his own damn dishes.

And DH says, Ill do them, I pick up after you too, its all I do is pick up after you two. And we get into a fight, where I try to calmly say sS has NO chores and Im getting tired of it.

I mean come on, hes 15 for gods sake. and he cant do his own damn dishes.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And, the bigger issue. Hopefully he can stop undermining what you say, and in front of your SS. The boy will never respect you.

    Your DH needs to learn real quick about respecting your dignity in front of SS and needs to ask to speak with you in private if he has an issue with something you are doing.

    And I agree with you that SS needs to have some chores. If anything it teaches you to be well rounded individual.

    My SD is 9 but my dh lets her slack on doing chores around the house too and it is annoying! I just remind him he isn't really doing her any favors by not teaching her responsibility. I can't stand it - my 3 year old picks up after himself better than she does!

    its funny, i dont know whats gotten into DH lately. Ive been mom to SS since he was 6, hes now 15. But lately, honestly since the pregnancy, DH has been undermining me.

    i wonder if he feels SS is hurt or something? trying to over compensate? but its driving me crazy and i cant put up with it.

    This.

    I have been in SD's life since she was 3 1/2, and it still goes on.....I don't think that guilt ever goes away and leads to the over compensation. Sounds like your DH is having a "guilt flare-up" b/c of the new baby.

    Exactly! My DH's Mom let/lets her 4 kids do pretty much nothing save emptying the garbage once a week. DH was soooo lazy when we first got married. He's grown up a lot but it caused MAJOR headaches in the beginning. His siblings (all younger) are all still really lazy. And hypochondriacs if it gets them out of helping...but that's another story!
