At the inlaws for the weekend. Partner of 6 years head out to meet a stag party in town after dinner to join in one of the "events" and stay for a drink after. - il be home by 11.....
Myself at inlaws with 2 small kids who aren't great sleepers.
Half 1.. no sigh of himself, dropped a text and a call no response.... half 2 called him "oh I'm at the casino... I miss lead you when I said I'd be back by 11" ....
Asked him to come home... hour and a half later rocks up with chips...
Kids wake at 6 and he will sleep off his drinking until probably 1 or 2.

I couldn't care less how late he stays out till as long as he said that it would be a late one or even messaged to say he was staying out later.
Is this a reasonable ask, or as my mil has said that when they get a drink in them they lose their priorities and what did I expect 🤔

I'm at the point of packing the kids into the car and heading home without him, so he can have some time to work on what are his priorities or stay at his parents house and letting them deal with the grown man they have raised.

Not impressed this morning 😴

He realised he had been a bit of a idiot and was sorry he didn't drop any us a message to say he had changed his mind and was going to stay out after all.

I took the kids to the park and cooled off.
He had a right laugh about me wanting to leave him at his parents and let him make his way home and was on best (hungover) behaviour for the remaining visit to his parents and home.

Thanks all!
