Really fed up with husband

He looks moody every time I mention my family. I haven’t seen my sister for over 1.5 years due to lockdown and today she texted about meeting up over bank holiday. He throws a strop everytime. She’s done nothing to him and I think it stems from jealousy as he’s not close with his sisters. When my sister and mum came to visit on the birth of my eldest child he was slamming doors and swearing (he was drunk).

I’ve had enough of him. I have never stopped him seeing his family. He visits his mum for whole day Sunday with the kids and goes for dinner in week 2x. His sisters are not interested in a relationship with him so he takes his childish attitude out on our kids as he makes them miss out seeing any of their cousins on my side.

We’re in marriage councelling and his attitude is never changing. Whenever I mention my family his response is “what about my sisters?”. Like he can invite them whenever he wants but for some reason only remembers he has sisters when my family want to come over!! I feel so angry and really just want to bloody shake him and scream at him to stop making my life and kids life a living hell!

He doesn’t realise that our kids have no idea who his sisters are or even the names of the cousins on his side! My family name so much effort FaceTiming abs sending birthday cards and presents and then he gets jealous. Like what’s the solution? His ideal world would be that I stop talking to my family and kids never see any of their cousins. If I could leave I would literally leave right now. Please done advice on how to carry on living with this man and keep my sanity.

I mean the obvious response is why can't you leave? You

The solution ? You already know what that is. Make plans and leave.
Controlling your contact with your family is abuse.

I don't think you can OP.

You just carry on seeing your family without him. Don’t cover for him. Tell your family he has issues with his own family so he behaves like an arse then carry on.
