[QUOTE="busywend, post: 362520, member: 391"] Welcome! I am glad you found us. You sound just like me. I ended up in a depression for the first time in my life. I hated yelling. I hated going home because I knew the battles would begin - and for a single mom there is no choice! And you are a single mom when husband is on the road. VERY important to get time to yourself. It took me WAY too long to learn that and accept it for truth. But, it is TRUE! Also, adjust the morning so there is more time for whatever it is that the arguments are about. For example if he likes to watch a certain cartoon get him up 20 minutes earlier so he can get X, Y & Z done before the TV even goes on. Talk about it together. Tell him you can not start your day this way any longer and you think it is not good for him to start his this way either. Come to an agreement with compromise that helps you argue less before school/work. Both of you come up with some suggestions and be willing to give a bit to the others ideas. It might not be traditional, but it might just work. [/QUOTE]
