[QUOTE="ROE, post: 45243, member: 2276"] I feel for you. When I was married, husband was not in tune to how bad things really were. I tried to talk to him, and he blew me off too. My husband was never around much either so he was clueless, and sadly he really Preferred it that way. My husband had a rude awakening when difficult child had a complete melt-down and husband was the target for a change. He decided that he should quit his second job (which I am convinced he took just to get away). Now he was home evenings and had the chance to see difficult child in his full glory on a regular basis. So now he can admit that difficult child's issues definitely were and still can be above and beyond a typical child (particularly when HE has a problem with him) but he remains on the sidelines to this day. I'm sorry I have no advice for you, just sympathy. I think SRL has made some very good points. Continue to do your homework. There may come a time when your husband is ready and willing to acknowledge the problems and work with you. [/QUOTE]
