OH told me to “get a job and go out to work” when I asked him to look after DD after a particularly difficult day. I have a few health issues so get tired easily. She had been playing up, tantruming, refusing to walk home etc and I was so tired, I just wanted a quick break before cooking dinner. Granted, I didn’t ask as such, and he’d just stepped through the front door after work to be greeted by me moaning about how difficult she’d been and saying “she’s all yours now”. Was I out of line?
I work for myself from home and fit it around DD with very limited childcare. We have no family near by and it is tough.
Getting a bit fed up that me “not going out to work” keeps getting thrown in my face. So because I don’t physically leave the house to go to a place of work every day, I don’t have a job or the right to ask for help looking after OUR daughter?!
