I have just been accused of using my kids as weapons and I could not react but with shock. I found that my STBXH is like a parrot. He just repeats what he hears even if it doesn't make sense. But I wondered if I am the one who is in the wrong.
He went out today and when he came back he moved the garbage bins to the street (it is garbage night). I heard him and quickly sent a message asking him to be quiet when he entered since the kids were sleeping (2.5 yo and 4 mo). He woke the baby up. I took her away from my son's room so the noise didn't wake him up and was trying to put her to sleep again. STBXH came upstairs and asked me if I wanted him to take her. I said no, I was trying to make her fall back asleep. He looked confused, I explained that she was sleeping but the door woke her up (no blame) so I thought that she could fall back sleep again. He then asked if I am using the kids as weapons. Am I?
