To be sick of DP being glued to his phone

[user40816]

I've had this conversation with him multiple times since DD arrived as it bugged me that 1) he wasn't engaging with her and 2) that he was setting a bad example and increasing the likelihood of DD wanting to be glued to a screen too because she sees daddy doing it.

The response I always get is that he's "doing something", i.e. looking something up or replying to people. I don't doubt that often he is, but I know for a fact that he also watches plenty of videos on Facebook and YouTube.

He's previously admitted he is somewhat addicted to his phone but he never changes. Not only will he be sat on it while DD is left to amuse herself, but he will also do it when I'm trying to talk to him. But then when I message him, he won't reply for ages and says he didn't see the notification.

AIBU to be getting so frustrated with this?

Phones are a pain in the ass

How old is your DD? Will they be picking up on the behaviour yet? Honestly there’s such an epidemic of these phone addiction but becasue it doesn’t cause a direct health concern… none seems bothered?! Could you suggest like if those phone time limiting apps ?

Tell him to check how many hours he's used it in a week. He might get a shock and spend less time on it.
