They put the kids to sleep by driving around in the car~what desperate parent hasn't done that BUT you do not need to scream at the top of your lungs while and drop the "f bomb" while doing it! If you need to load your kid into the car at 2 am you do it quietly because you have neighbors that might be sleeping 20 feet from where you are standing and screaming. She yells because she is frustrated because she if tired and I can sympathize. He yells at HER because she is yelling at him. But in the middle of all of this are their babies. Then he has the nerve to say that my dogs bark and wake up his kids! He's NUTS!
My husband just confessed that after I went into the house the moron actually said that I owed him an apology.  Sorry but the truth hurts and I don't apologize! |
I agree...he is trying to justify kicking your dog....with his lack of ability to mange his anger and his kids. I understand that small kids are a handful and can drive you nuts at times (I know, I had one)...but its not an accuse. Just reading some posts got me consider..that the way to "fix him" is to get his kids...that's too harsh and unnecessary.
He most definitely owes you the apology, its not your fault he cant get his kids to sleep at night...and i know if your babies were barking all night long you wouldn't be able to sleep either. Your sweet husband is trying to keep the peace in the neighborhood.
But i would try to talk to him and let him know that he could of seriously injured Bogey, and just like he loves his children, you love your furbabies and would be heartbroken if something happened to them. If he has any kind of decency to him, he will understand and apologize to you.
But i don't think some anger management classes, couples counseling, and parenting classes would hurt.
