Hi all,
This is an argument I've had with my partner many, many times. He thinks he is right, I think I am.
We have one child together, high needs autistic with an undiagnosed sleep disorder-
Partner works full time I stay home with our son.
Partner gets a guaranteed 1 night off a week, when he's out I chill and go to bed early. When I'm out, he stays up all night drinking as soon as DS goes to bed. I've asked him many times not to do this, as I can never fully switch off and relax, I'm always watching the clock and watching what Im drinking so I can be home and sober incase DS wakes up.
Yesterday we had this argument again, I've said he stops me from being able to go out, I just don't feel like it's worth it knowing I'll more than likely be up all night with DS as soon as I get back in the door so I don't bother going out often.
I feel like one parent should always be alert and sober, he doesn't.
I'm genuinely considering leaving over this as I have been asking him for years not to do so. He doesn't respect my needs as a person, I feel.
AIBU??
