Actually at the end of my tether with partner

I’m not sure what i can do !!!
3 months ago my little boy could reach the door handle so I asked partner to put a lock on the door this took a lot of me nagging for him to do ! But he did it however he constantly comes in and doesn’t lock the door ( it’s a simple bolt /lock so not hard ) I have to tell him 9 times out of 10 to lock it, we live on a main very busy road where cars race down and if our boy got out he wouldn’t stand a chance ( he’s 2 and a little 2 year old, he doesn’t understand the danger of the roads yet ) a dog got hit by a car on our road the other day and I’m scared stiff of something happening because he “ forgets “ I tell him till I’m blue in the face and nothing changes, and when I do tell him he acts like a child being tokd off and stands there all child like and says “ sorry I forgot and that I’m going over the top about it !

another thing we agreed together that our dd should have a healthy breakfast ( she’s quite fussy eater ) and no crap at all ! All week she has something decent until it’s the weekend when he goes against me and gives her hot chocolate before 8 am but if I did it he’d say something about it.

Also the other day I asked him to watch our 12 week old as she was asleep on the sofa, he was sat next to her whilst I go up for a bath, just as I’m about to run the bath I hear him out in the kitchen making his lunch for the next day he’d left baby on the sofa alone ( we have hard wooden flooring ) and when I said he shouldn’t do that and took baby upstairs he acted all shocked like he didn’t understand why he couldn’t leave her like that;

What a waste of space, and very careless with your children’s safety and wellbeing. You’d be better off on your own and managing everything rather than feeling disappointed and angry with a man who isn’t interested in keeping your children safe.

And yet you kept having kids with this man.
