I suspect I might be but I thought I'd gather some opinions.
DH is off work this week because it's half term and he is a teacher. He is looking after DS (5) who is also off from school.
DD is 3.5 and goes to nursery 4 days a week. I suggested to DH that she has 1 or 2 days off nursery this week and spend time with DH and DS instead as although it's all paid for, she'd rather be at home than go to nursery.
DH says I'm trying to control what he does on his holidays and he'd like to spend some one to one time with DS, and that DD gets 1 day a week off with me anyway, so DS should get some time alone too. Fair enough, I understand that, but surely 2 or 3 days of just DH and DS is enough for that? DH said he "might" take DD out of nursery for one day, won't commit though, saying I'm trying to control him and telling him what to do with his holidays (like my holidays are spend doing what I like...).
It's not a long day for DD, from 9-2.30, but it's more that she is not silly and she is now big enough to realise that DH is not going to work and DS is not going to school and this morning cried saying she wanted to stay at home with daddy. Really felt sad for her. Managed to convince her that daddy and DS as got lots of jobs to do and that I will take her somewhere special after nursery today. I can't do this for another 3 days. I do the school run and nursery run drop offs and pick ups, school plays, meetings, inset days etc all on my own and I'm also a bit pissed off that I still have to do it while DH is at home (DD's nursery is at my workplace). But I do it because it is better for DS to relax at home without having to rush out to drop off DD.
I think DH is taking her off nursery on Thursday, but it pisses me off that he won't commit to it and if I broach the subject he accuses me off trying to control him.
so...who's being unreasonable?
