Just a little rant. My DH is a great dad but disorganised and doesn't listen. I do all the arranging - presents for kids' birthdays, weekend play dates, medical appointments, school admin etc like many mums I am sure. I sometimes ask him to help out on stuff like this which he says he will do happily. He tells me I don't need to repeat/remind him - if I have asked him he will do it, he really hates being nagged, thinks I don't trust him etc. But a case in point this afternoon. I have put my back out so I am laid up in bed I can hardly walk. I had asked him to go to parents evening without me then on to DS's dentist appointment. I gave him the times, told him who to ask for. He called me to check. Fine. I am doing a work call from bed, come down to find he hasn't gone to the dentist appointment, he forgot apparently. They've set off but will be late and unlikely to be seen now. It's not easy to arrange these things around school and other commitments so I am really annoyed. Also - what do I do - nag/remind till I am confident he will remember (but risk putting his nose out of joint) or not remind and he forgets. Ugh. Rant over. But AIBU?
