He wants to watch WWE Summer Slam on Sky TV tonight at 9pm. It's £15 & I said he has to use his own £ to pay for it & he can watch it tomorrow as it goes on till 1am.
We had this same argument last night & he called me a bitch, so I told him I would not record it for him. And we are having the same argument tonight and the compromise of watching it tomorrow is not good enough, queue 45 men's of whining how horrible and unfair I am etc etc etc. I told him to stop, final warning, but he still goes on and on and on and won't stop. I would have had to leave the house so not to hear anymore but can't due to younger child.
How can I make him stop? Reach a compromise and stop him being so stubborn and categorical refusal to budge one inch. He won't listen and constantly interrupts me and talks over me. I chucked the sky remote near his feet to jolt him out of it. DH just got home and I have retreated upstairs as I am livid
