Husband behaviour !

MariaL40 · 19/11/2023 22:20

Husband decided to cook tonight which rarely happens! Anyway I was sitting on the couch watching tv and when dinner was ready he demanded I move so he could sit in my
place! I replied I was comy
and warm and didn’t want to move. He got really angry then my 16 year old said to me I was the problem as I should have moved !!!! And went upstairs to eat his dinner
Then I said something to my 12 year old and he said a woman was not going to tell him what to do!!!! I’m so tired of all this and yet I feel at a loss as to what to do

Wow!
What messages are you and your H teaching your sons?
That it is acceptable to abuse and humiliate your Mother and women?
That mysogny is acceptable?

I think you and your husband need to rethink the kind of men you are bringing up

Holy shit.

You leave him that what you do.

You've kept a mysoginist in your life and get ruining your children.

You leave him and you tell your sons clearly - if you don't respect partners, they will leave you.

It might not be too late.
But you have to show your sons thar women do not stay with abusive men. You owe them that. If they're to have any chance at loving relationships one day.

Respect yourself.

Wow lovely family, your oh attitude is rubbing off on your kids.

I would go on strike until all three of them learn respect for their wife/mother

Also, that would be my favourite seat on the couch from now on.

Erm tired of not being a good parent. Sorry your rude boys have learnt that from somewhere that's not hard to figure out. I can't imagine my kids speaking to me like that and tbh if they even remotely said something like it hubby would be down on them. Our 4 have been brought up to be respectful and my hubby old school has taught the boys hold door open, carry heavy things for me etc which I very much appreciate and all done with smiles and normal for us

Yes. All of the above.

DottyLottieLou · 22/12/2023 09:03

Do not stay with people who treat you like that. You deserve better.

WhenIsSpringg · 22/12/2023 15:38

I get the feeling similar to this has happened before. There should have been hell to pay the very first time. A polite but firm you will not be spoken to like that and it is completely unacceptable to treat your family so rudely.

Do you model good manners for you children.

Your husband obviously has the manners of an animal, although I know for sure most animals are extremely well mannered.

The 12 year old's response has Andrew Tate and online influencers written all over it. That's what I'd be the most worried about right now

My thoughts entirely. It's very concerning. I'd be asking school about behaviours and attitudes there. My kid's school have done loads about Andrew Tate etc as it's so damaging
