Aibu? I'm fed up with dh this morning as ten minutes into his epic twenty minute poo with iPhone ds needs s wee, so instead of using the toilet like normal, I put him on the potty at dh's feet to do a wee and leave them to it and go off toclean up from the breakfast I made them both.
A few minutes later ds is screaming, so after wondering why dh isn't sitting him out, go back to the bathroom to find ds on the floor covered in a potty of wee and dh still on loo playing with iPhone. A whole outfit needed changed and washed, bathroom floor and bathmat needing washed and boy needing washed.
Apparently according to dh, it was my responsibility to make sure ds was safely off the potty as dh was having a poo. So he could of reached down and helped him off the potty as he was busy.
Now apparently dh us going to start locking the door when he goes to the loo and leaving the potty outside the door.
I never get a toilet visit alone anymore, let alone a 20 minute one, or perhaps the equivalent 20 min soak in the bath.
Ds is toilet training, doing really well, I don't think it's the appropriate time to try and teach him that if he needs the toilet then if daddy or mummy are in there to wait. Maybe next year or when he'll understand.
Aibu to expect dh to not be sit on the loo and ignore his son? Are a man's toilet visit sacred?
