Husband behaviour

[Starlight43]

Tonight at dinner husband and children were complaining about dinner and when I said something husband says I’m too sensitive!!! (This is a regular occurrence in my house) . I had enough and went into the living room to finish my dinner in front of the tv. He comes in and demands I switch it off which I didn’t he then went back intro the kitchen kicked the dishwasher and in the process broke 3 glasses. My 12 year old said to me that it was all my fault.
ive had a day of more of the same I’m just exhausted needed to vent . Thanks for reading

Is this a regular thing? If so, I'd just say "if you can't be grateful for what you're given, I'd like you to cook from here on in"

If its not a regular thing, then perhaps you were being too sensitive.

Edited to add: I mean, are the complaining comments about dinner a regular thing? I am assuming he doesn't kick the dishwasher often?

His behaviour is teaching the kids they too can abuse you.

If this is what your marriage has devolved to, and if this is the kind of environment your kids are living in, it's time to divorce and go your separate ways.

Venting is all well and good but the underlying problem ie you are in an abusive marriage remains.

Your 12 year old is now copying his/her fathers abusive behaviour. that young person cannot afford to grow up thinking and or otherwise believing that abuse is a normal part of a relationship.

How can you be helped into leaving your abuser?.

Criticising food you had prepared, demanding you turn the television off, kicking the dishwasher, breaking glasses ... and your 12yr old says it's your fault??

No. This relationship has totally broken down. It's over. You need to leave and salvage your position as a mother who deserves respect from your children. The whole environment needs to change.

This is awful OP! Not only is your husband being rude to you but he’s teaching your children! You need to put your foot down and stop this behaviour

So tomorrow you have a conversation with them on how rude they are being. Moving forward they will all take turns in cooking the evening meal, including the 12 year old ( if they are not the eldest those older can also take a turn) set up a rota and leave them to it
