Just venting..
I feel like I can’t leave my spouse with my children without him wanting to get “stuff done” like fix the car, work on his skis or just be on his phone reading stuff and not giving them attention.
I wanted to go skiing this morning but I don’t even think he knows our baby’s schedule on when he eats/sleeps etc even though I’ve mentioned MANY TIMES & he sees throughout the weekend.
Idk 🤷🏻♀️ if I should just try and trust the process but I can’t help but always have a lack of confidence he will be active with them. He gets mad easily when he’s stressed and he has been lately. I also just didn’t want him yelling at our 3 1/2 year old for acting out if she wanted attention with someone to just simply play with her. She’s an amazing kid just very active. She will play by herself for awhile but sometimes she just craves someone else to interact respectably.

We have a 3.5 year old too. I’d be so irked with this. When I want to go swim/sauna or do some gym activities, I go. And I need to be certain our child is well taken care of and has quality time.

That’s called weaponized incompetence. As a parent he should know and actively care for and take part in your children’s lives/activities/schedules. There is literally no excuse. A conversation should be had about his lack of competence when it comes to caring for your children. You should not have to sacrifice your hobbies and interests because he’s not capable of being an active parent.
