tonight after dinner I was cleaning up and noticed a placemat had last nights dinner on it. I asked dh and he insisted he had wiped it but it wouldn't come off. I got a wet cloth and it came off easily. I laughed and made a joke about me being right and took things through to the kitchen. when I returned dd looked uncomfortable and said I need to tell you something. dh said, no don't! if mummy and daddy split up it will be your fault. I told dd that she had done nothing wrong and got her to tell me. Apparently dh called me a pig when I had left the room. Recently he has remarked on my being overweight - I am 5'7 and 13.5 stone but I am working on it. He is from an asian country where almost everyone is very slender. I was hurt at his comment and told him not to come near me.

DD got upset. She is 7, I explained its not her fault. I told dh I am not Happy at him putting that kind of pressure / guilt on her, and that he.s setting a terrible example.

He disagrees and is now angry with me.

AIBU?

Unless he can suddenly grow some respect for you and empathy for his 7 year old daughter......... who now believes she is responsible for your understandably being hurt by his disrespectful put down comment....., agree with Emmcan
You need to lose about 12 stones...of DH.

He's using DD aso his little 'ally';thank goodness she knew what he said was wrong. It's not fair to put that pressure on a little child and he should be ashamed. These 'throwaway' comments shapeople children and their familial relationships as well as their self esteem.
No chance I'd allow my DH to get away with this shit. He was ugly and direspectful about you in front of DD. It's completely unacceptable

Brilliant example to set your daughter.

I would never slag DD's father off too them and we are separated and he is a massive twat.

He thinks I am at fault for not creating a happier atmosphere that he could make jokes like that.

This is wrong in many ways

  1. you can't force a happy atmosphere and if he's saying stuff like that to your daughter and about you, there's as much chance of a happy atmosphere as there is a rain of gold coins.

  2. those aren't jokes. 'Jokes' that are cruel and leave people feeling bad just aren't funny. He might want to try learning what humour really is.

You say he's getting worse?

I think you need to talk to him about what he sees as a good relationship and where he sees the marriage going.

Your priority in all this has to be looking after your daughter, including her emotional health. Your husband either doesn't have a clue how to be a healthy parent and needs to learn, or else he's abusive.

I meant him setting a bad example not you op incase that wasn't clear.

Next time you have sex, ask him if it's in yet!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 28/11/2016 21:49

He's a cunt for calling you a pig and an even bigger cunt to blame any come back that he might get on a child.

kittybiscuits · 28/11/2016 21:51

He's an absolute bastard. Your daughter is great. You too!

SouthWindsWesterly · 28/11/2016 21:53

Seriously?! This isn't part of Asian culture. This is pure biggus dickus twattery of the highest order, illustrated by the emotional blackmail he laid on your daughter for just telling the truth.

Twat. Hope the sofa's lumpy.

YokoWakarimasen · 28/11/2016 22:00

mykidshavetakenmyinsanity - right now no more sex ever!

southwinds - I know. Just explaining his perception as he is from a country of slim people.

I am really pissed off. In bed with both kids so he can sleep elsewhere.
