[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 242132"] Thank you. I knew you were there with me last night at counseling. As far as school / grades....I can print them out and put them on the table. husband doesn't look at them and leaves it where I put it until I throw it out. He denies what the papers say. Says "I dispute that". I tried having school contact him in prior years. Problem is that husband cannot use the phone at work except for his lunch time. (he works in a shop). If school calls and something needs to be dealt with ASAP he is no help. (such as suspension or sick) We have tried having school leave messages and husband return them at lunch. (MY idea) that didn't work because when husband is at lunch so are all the teachers. husband is completely computer illiterate. Has absolutely NO IDEA how to use the computer. Then Bashes ME for logging on and thinks I logon hundreds of time a night to difficult child's school. He even said like 3 am. Sure, the teachers are up putting grades in at 3am. (husband has no problem navigating his phone to the internet now does he) Anyway, the principal AT school asked him last fall if he would read email if the teachers sent one to him. He says, Oh, yes. difficult child and I just looked at each other. TWICE husband asked difficult child to log him on to the email. Never did it again. therapist asked husband last night if HE would logon and check difficult child's grades on the new parent connect thing. He would not commit to it for a while. Then said yes. therapist asked him when he would be willing to sit down and learn how to do it. husband says, difficult child can show me...I interrupted and said NO, I do not want difficult child knowing the password. therapist asked if I could show him. He says yes. And says as soon as we get home. Well, We got home and I turned on the computer. He never said a word. Not one single word. Am I suppose to ASK him? I did not. I was waiting for him. That did not happen. I do have one fear. husband has no idea how to use a computer at this time. So if I teach him how, will he be doing what he does on his cell phone??? We practiced fair fighting last night. That's a joke. We don't even speak, how would we make an appointment to fight. therapist just called as I was writing this. Wants me to come in asap to follow up. Wants us both in seperately. I cannot make the time today, but will go tomorrow. husband cannot take off of work. therapist said he would be willing to speak to him on the phone. You guys really help. I hope you know that. Thank you [/QUOTE]
