Some things have happened and Im not sure how much I should weigh in.
So the next time I left to cool off, I took my son with me to my parents.
HB then said I took our son away from him just to hurt him, which is completely untrue.
From the first day we were there, HB suddenly started working later than he had been.
I would take our son to the playground so he could unwind.
He didnt tell me he made these plans and he spent his first day off golfing.
I forgave that, and we had our youngest and moved to where HB worked.
HB said I abandoned him and the family and didnt give it enough time.
I have a bad back, and it seems to worsen with stress and our marriage.
By the time final exams came around, we had split.
I had scheduled parenting for a disabled child classes for both of us.
I completely forgot about the first session, but HB remembered and didnt remind me.
Ive been getting help from daycare and pre-k/kindergarten for our son.
The pediatrician said he should be around as many kids as possible for as long as possible.
HB has always been against daycare, but I need the help.
Everyone has told me that if I need help, I should get it.
Daycare runs Monday to Thursday, and I pick him up at 3:30 or sometimes 4:00.
My back is terrible, and I sleep sitting up, constantly waking up.
I havent slept properly in years.
I need sleep, or else I get grouchy and take it out on those around me.
Its not fair to them, and I realize that.
When Im exhausted, all I want to do is rest.
I dont drink, do d***s, party, or vacationnothing.
All I ask is to rest, and hes still not happy.
Sometimes hes there with them, and sometimes he leaves to go golfing.
I dont say anything because his time with the kids is up to him.
His mom and HB are all talk, no action.
This arrangement lasted three weeks before she started forgetting and then said she was busy.
After that, she never asked to help again, and I never asked her either.
So, I need to know: am I a bad mom?
Does HB want to be a dad?
Does he want to be married?
