[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 98826, member: 84"] Carolanne I ditto what the others have said. I am wondering. Do you have a relative or friend who would let you come and stay a whole week? You could use the break, and husband can certainly used the reality check. I'm thinking if he's the only parent in the house for a whole week, she's gonna turn on him next. Then I wonder how his "this is a stage" theory is gonna hold up under the pressure. Odds are he'd be diciplining her by the time you got back. If you can't get away, go completely on strike. No parenting duties for you dear. Not for ANY of the kids. You're just the cook and the maid for the next couple of weeks til husband gets a clue. Now it has to be ALL the kids cuz husband needs to get a REAL taste of parenting in your house. While husband is at work, save up every little thing that went wrong and throw it at him, then walk away. *Careful not to smile where he can see you.* Good grief. Granted I do the bulk of diciplining around here, but that's because husband couldn't be consistant if his life depended on it. ((((hugs))))) [/QUOTE]
