Ok I know he is ill, heart condition and depression, but it makes me sad and even winds me up that DH doesn't even say good night to DD. We have had some problems with bedtime routines, and this week I've been home every night and really taking the time to have a nice long, slow bedtime routine. He doesn't even come in to say goodnight, just stays in our room with the door shut, or on the computer.
I asked him if both his parents used to say goodnight to him and DH said no. He was the youngest of 6, his dad worked full time and no one paid much attention to him at all.
Still it breaks my heart to see DD rejected.
Or should I be more understanding or DH's illness?
Do all your DPs say good night to the children?
