To think my kids will remember what a miserable twat their Dad is

[worthygirl]

Just that really. My ‘dp’ is a grumpy old man- he won’t take the kids to the park, he won’t play with them and is super grumpy to the point of reducing my 6 year old to tears earlier. I hate him for it.
It’s always me taking them to the park, doing fun stuff with them. It’s like he forgets they are kids- he wouldn’t get DD’s train track out earlier hence her tears. I just feel like that’s all they will remember of their childhood- a miserable cunt who wouldn’t play with them. I try to fill the gap and make sure they have a fun, happy, loved life but I feel like he ruins it all.
Aibu to hope they remember the good & not the bad?
Ps, we are starting therapy as I have had enough

@Birdsgottafly do you honestly think this will mess her up? And I am asking honestly. DS, who is older, doesn't have the same issues with DH at all. I know DD feels DH doesn't listen to her as she tells me and we discuss things. But sometimes I've listened and he is saying something and she absolutely doesn't hear it and carries on with her rant. It's odd actually.

But there is a difference in how she reacts to me and how she reacts to him, even though she can be very much 'daddy do it' at times. It's difficult as he isn't bad. He does take them to their clubs and will sit and play with them and I am by no means perfect but it's hard to see a situation when you are in it and they do love him and if he's working shifts, they say they miss him. I worry by splitting they will blame me and say they want him here. I wouldn't split solely over this but I am unhappy in general.
