DP just grabbed my wrists

[Somekindoflove]

4 yr old wouldn’t go to bed tonight for the fifth night in a row. His behaviour is really bad. After the last two hours of getting him to bed he’s still kicking off. Husband shouting at me to put him into my bed to get him to sleep but it’s getting s habit. Finally I give in and get him out of bed where my son starts screaming and crying. I get him into our bed and go to cuddle him to stop him being upset. DP barges into room and tells me to get out. I told him I calming the situation down but he keeps insisting. My son is in my arms and I’m cuddling him. Dh grabs me by the wrists so violently and hard and takes him off me. I leave the room and I’ve got in the car and left. I’m in such a state. I don’t know what to do. I’m parked up in a car park

Your son behaves like that because he knows daddy will give in. He's caused it and then makes you seem like the bad cop by swooping in, taking over and giving in. I would be furious with just that, let alone the rough manhandling. He would be out of the door here.

The door is his, so is the house and everything bought in it. I don’t own anything. He would have me out. That’s why I’m having to play this so carefully. Still nothing from him. He will twist it all around on me. How predictable. I’m not going to keep silent and try to stay out of his way.

If you are married then half the house is yours, as are all family assets!

It sounds difficult, are you married. He can't just throw you out, what about the children. Don't stand your ground just to stand up to him, it's about your sons welfare and getting him to go to bed at a proper set time each night without any arguments is the priority.

How you doing OP? X

Will you leave him?
