I criticised husband for using touch screen when driving and now he won’t drive me or the kids anywhere I told his relative as well as some health professionals that his behaviour made me anxious . He wants me to untell everyone and tell everyone I was wrong

We live
In a remote location so he knows we need to use the highway . I don’t drive on motorways

Is this controlling behaviour ?

He said he will come with us tomorrow to swimming park if I agree to go to his relatives house on Sunday . The irony is his relative isn’t even available. I asked her and she’s away. His relatives don’t cancel their kids swim lessons to come to us but when we went last time our daughter missed swimming.

That’s the only
Outing he ever suggests . We went 3 weeks ago. He knows I don’t really like going.

He never suggests any sort Of fun trip with the kids /activity it always has to be me

other day he dropped baby while baby was on his lap in sofa baby crawled off and I called 111 and husband recorded the call and recorded me and his conversations

he said I never called 111 when baby fell off toddlers bed a few weeks ago when I turned around for a second

yesterday he told DD 5 who is fussy eater “baby finished before you” and she was slightly upset I told him not to put kids against each other and he stormed off and said I’m critisinf him and he raised his voice and i
said it’s better if I don’t talk

i have spoke to some solicitors

Stop being so weedy and drive on the bloody motorway ! You've passed a driving test so get on with it ... motorway driving is a straight line ... you really don't need a penis for this..

Sounds as though your dh would be a lot happier if you were to divorce

You sound controlling.

You both don't sound very happy based just on what you wrote here.
I agree he maybe shouldn't use the touch screen while driving, although I use ours a bit as its the way I put windscreen wipers etc on so as long as its quick and safe thats not an issue
The other stuff doesn't sound like a big deal, why call 111 for a sofa fall?
And learn to drive on motorways, its not a big deal and in fact it can be easier then other roads, DD had 1 lesson to build up her confidence after passing her test
