Dsd is 15, shared care 50/50. I don't feel AIBU but dh and I cannot agree on this topic.
Dsd has a doll she plays with, she likes to play in the dining room because apparently the table is the right height. I have no issue with the doll my issue is this.
She opens dining room door shuts herself in, closes the shutters, moves the table and gets on with whatever. Finishes playing gets up and leaves. Leaving the chair out, table still moved (closer to plug for her phone charger) shutters still closed, doll on the table door wide open.
Every time she has to be asked to tidy up and put things back the way she found them. Every. Single. Time.
I am the one who clears it up when she's gone to school having left it and left it until I can't any longer. I sent her and dh a text saying I was unhappy with having to constantly tidy up after her and in future she needs to do it herself. My text was ignored.
So I've said to dh that from now on if she wants to play she does it in her bedroom because I am fed up of either asking her to clear up or doing it once she's gone. He thinks I'm being unreasonable because in his words 'it takes 5 seconds to pick up a doll'
I've asked him for a compromise but he can't give me one thinks we should just keep asking her to clear up after her. I am so fed up! So AIBU?
