Need a rant, badly... So I think my partner has got is easy. He helped out a handful of times with the DS at night... Literally a handful! Every other time it's me....I have to take DS to the doctor, I have to deal with DS through the night since day 1, I'm the one that always have to call work and tell them I cannot come as DS is unwell and I haven't slept all night. I'm sick and tired yet he looks like the perfect employee, never calling in or requesting time to look after the DS. If I didn't work fair enough, but I work FT just as he does. AIBU to think he should get of his arse and help more? It causes a lot of arguments as he says that I blame him. He calls me crazy and storms off to work. How to deal with the issue ?! I'm at my wit's end !!!

He should be doing half of the childcare because you both work full time. It's not fair. Why have you let this situation happen in the first place? It needs addressing and if he doesn't want to step up and contribute then get rid of him

Swop him for tax credits. You'll get every other weekend free plus child support on top. You're doing everything anyway.

Calling you crazy and storming off is not respectful and not joint-parenting. What is it that makes you value being with him?

Shoxfordian how? I don't know, it just happened..I am a busy person whom just gets on with things. We have plenty of arguments about it to be fair...

Teacuptattoo I really don't know? Too scared to start over and have him look after my DS? He won't wake up when he cries...
