Not to take husband to work everyday and pick him up

absolutely he should walk
why should he expect everyone to get in the car twice a day for a 10 minute drive when he can do a healthy 20 minute walk?

It's a mile or 20 mins walk. 5 mins on a bike. i dont get what his objection is apart from being an entitled lazy person

I don’t think I’d want to be married to anyone who

a) is too lazy to go for a 20 minute walk
b) is so pushy and bullying

Exactly. I walk to work and if it rains I put up my hood and take an umbrella.

Would find this level of laziness deeply unattractive tbh.

What a lazy git! 20 minutes walk is nothing and will do him good. I walk to work, one hour each way abd I do it because it's good for my health. Can't believe he's too lazy to walk and he expects you to drive when you have your hands full.

A 20 min walk is nothing. He’s taking the piss to insist on being chauffeured to work and back.

Today get on FB Marketplace and send him links to local bikes for sale. He's being ridiculous expecting you all to disrupt yourselves for his lazy ass. I have a bit of a bulldozer myself in my DH, just ignores when I say 'don't plan my day off like I work for you!'. Depending on what he wants to do I may agree but I've found that I have to be really firm with the, "I did say I wasn't going to do that, sorry if you misunderstood my no for a yes". Is he overbearing and likely to turn sulky/angry? Let us know how you got on this morning. We are rooting for you.

20 minutes walk is nothing, and neither is a bit of rain! Lots of posters saying he should walk but if it's raining you should give him a lift. Why? Can't a grown man carry an umbrella, or get a bit wet? I walk my dog 90 minutes every day, rain or shine, it's no big deal. I honestly can't believe he'd expect this of you OP. As a previous poster said, stick to your boundaries. He can always get a bike if he's that feeble.

He might just have to learn the hard way where you just don't do it even if he is expecting it. It will be hard for a few times but he will get it eventually.
In the morning just carry on with your routine and get the kids to school. I'd remind him once you aren't taking him then leave it there. Ignore him if you have to or just keep repeating no sorry. When he texts to pick you up, be busy and not looking at your phone. Put it in another room if you have to.
Maternity leave isn't a holiday where you are there to cater for your DH whim of not walking to work. Its there for you to look after your baby.

He'd rather disrupt 4 people rather than walking for 20 minutes? Absolutely NOT!
As others have said, he can either walk, or get a bike. If it was chucking it down then I might give him a lift but it wouldn't be the default option.
And he can't make you take him. It's YOU that has to physically pick the car keys up and drive!
Tell him to stop being a lazy, selfish bastard.

That is very selfish of him. I would tell home that you will take him/collect him only if it is bad weather. A 20 min walk is good for him and really not much. Then just grey rock any whining from him - refuse to discuss it, he can’t force you to drive him.

Yes, getting little kids into a car is a piece of piss
And are you serious about being 'active'? You'd happily walk 20 mins, but only if it wasn’t raining and was fairly flat. If there's a hint of a hill you require a car?
I've heard it all now.

Full night's sleep and chauffeured to work? FUCK THAT..

Compromise. Tell him, if he gets the kids ready, and into the car at x o'clock, you will drive him to work.
And the PP's suggestion of a time window in the afternoon. ie between 5 and 5:30 you'll collect him- but otherwise he makes his own way.

It can take 20 minutes just to get kiddies in car seats and coats on etc etc. I’d offer 2 out of the three mornings as a compromise and no more. He’s a grown man he can easily get himself to work

Is this real? He can't walk for 20 minutes? (living a 20-minute walk from work is a luxury), he expects everyone to get up even in school holidays so he can be driven there, he asks over and over again, he tells the kids it's happening without you being on board?
Does he behave like this about other things?

Face up to him and ask him why he will not walk (and bollocks to 'wet and cold weather'; unless he's actually the Wicked Witch of the West, he just needs a decent coat and shoes). And ask why he thinks his behaviour about this issue is OK.

Aside from anything else ,he is overriding your boundaries. Im sorry ,are you a SAHM or on maternity leave? either way hes being selfish. Does he normally get his own way.I think just dont be ready in time ,DC not ready ,dont get dressed yourself .He needs to learn .And no lifts in the hols either!

Just keep saying no. 20 min walk is nothing, it's what I do after a 15min drive AND an hour on the train, to get to work.
Lazy bastard.

Thats madness - what a waste of money for a car to sit doing nothing for 23.20 hours per day 365 days a year. A bike would cost a fraction, even an electric bike of that and do the job just as well if not better in many cases - as there are always parking issues everywhere

You cannot be serious!

@robinsongs it's not selfish to put the comfort of 4 people above the comfort of . If he is not good at hearing no. Now is a good time for him to learn. He is the father of 3 and he has to pull his weight to care for his family. That includes ensuring his wife gets a few extra minutes of sleep when she does theb night wakings.

I dont hear you being selfish only his selfishness

DH and I share one car. I’m currently on long term sick leave. He was getting the bus into the office. And I did the school run (we live walking distance). However he’s started getting up later so misses the bus. Like today.

bus goes at 815. He’s just got in the shower. I’m up and dressed and me and the kids will leave at 825 for school.

I need the car today and DH needs to be in the office for 9. He will be late. But he gets a lift in.

This isn't about the lift. It's about DH not valuing the hard work of parenting and thinking you're just chilling at home with your feet up while he's grafting at work. He's a man who needs to be left to look after all three of his children on his own for a full day. Better yet, a weekend. Then bundle them all into the car to come pick you up from the bus/train when you command him to.

I'm being generous. He sounds like a lazy, bullying, coercive arse, and you should be taking inventory of everything else that is wrong with this relationship, and making plans to get you and the children away from him. Before he grinds you down even more than he already has.

YANBU
He does realise that you are not on holiday and you are in fact on maternity leave and your priority is your baby and your other children?!? Coz his attitude suggests he thinks you are on holiday and available to make his life easier…which is just not the case.
I would firmly explain to your idiot husband that NO you will not be driving him to and from work as you are currently already working 24/7 looking after your 5 month old baby. If he wouldn’t ask you to leave the office to take him to work he doesn’t get to ask you to drive him whilst you are on mat leave. Keep telling him no and DO NOT cave in and take him. What would he do if you didn’t take him and he was late? Would he blame you? Let him…then continue to say no and it is his fault if he is late to work. After one or two days of him being late he will get the message and stop asking. Whilst you keep caving he won’t take no as an answer as he is getting his own way.

It's not selfish. He is selfish and lazy and bit of a bully by the sound of it.
