Friend said her husband hates my 7 year old!

Had a friend round with her 3 boys today, 8, 5, 5

We have known each other about 6 years, she has had my son for 4 days once because I went out of the country and got delayed returning.

During those 4 days, her husband spent time with my son alone as they went shopping! Supposed to have had fun.

Well, we were sat in the garden and she just informed me her husband doesn't like my sweet 7 year old, my boy hasn't been rude to him, he just doesn't like my sons dad so in turn doesn't like my son.

I was speechless and she's just left, I have no idea what to do, we spend a lot of time at their house and her husband is always there, he doesn't work, today was the first time in about a year I've seen her alone!

Should I bring it up? I can't ever imagine saying I dont like a child because of their dad.

For context my partner and her husband do not get on!

Your friend is not your friend.. what a horrible thing for her partner to say about your child in the first place and what a horrible person to relay that information to you!

I think It may be worth reading the full thread?!!

Someone came on the wrong thread and posted about home ed!!!!

Your friend was brave to open up to you. You are not tue only one who doesnt like your.partner, and hes causing like behaviours in your ds.

I think you have badly dripfed OP, and made out your ds to be all innocent in this and defended your partner when you and your friends dont like him.

I was referring to the previous 2 posters who have clearly only read the OP, sorry that wasn't clear.

I don't think the OP will return now people have realised who she is.

You could suggest to her that maybe her DH should get off his backside and get a job as clearly the video games are messing with his head.
