[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 279521, member: 3444"] I guess the guilt trip I get from husband doesn't help with the way I'm feeling. He came in and starts in with his passive/agressive (great timing for that other thread) whining that I must not like him very much because I'm not out there with him (it's always about him). I think his anxiety is ramped up because of the impending layoffs next week. He's been agitated on and off lately. I don't think he understands what it's like to really parent the difficult children. He's usually off to bed and leaves me to deal with the hard stuff. Although that's not really fair, it's ended up being easier because he never knew how to be calm about dealing with difficult child behaviors. He would let his emotions get too wrapped up in things and they escalated and got ugly. Or he wouldn't deal with them at all and there was no discipline or structure. I'm rambling now... This is such a misunderstood job I have. But I know you all "get" it. :D Thanks for letting me vent a little. [/QUOTE]
