DD is 9. Has been cast in a film and been filming all week 2 hours drive away. We stayed in a hotel but came home this evening. On way home I rang DH and asked had he gone to shops to get milk/bread etc essentials. He said 'no and that I never told him we needed this stuff' and why was i waiting til 8pm to tell him and that he wasnt going out at 8pm and to get the stuff myself with DD. He doesn't believe as a 45 year old man he should just restock things he used (he was here 3 days by himself).
She has been filming for 8 hours and a 2 hour drive. After me standing my ground he went and when we got home to 'punish' us he is basically ignoring DD. This is her first film. She was ecstatic to come home and tell him. All he said to her was 'move out of way' when he tried to get passed her on stairs.
I am guessing I'll get lots of LTB replies and honestly I'm edging towards this more and more as weeks go by. How could he do that to a child?
Any ideas how i can stop DD's little heart breaking? She was crying going to bed that shes so disappointed about how he behaved. I basically just reinforced how proud I am of her and that his behaviour is very bad. He is trying to get at me through her. She's such a gem of a child. She doesnt deserve this. He doesnt deserve a child like her or my DS who is also a brilliant kid. I'm so sick of him.
