[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 227196, member: 1169"] husband isn't always like this. I think that is what gets me so mad. If he was never interested in parenting the kids, I could adjust and make plans on those lines. Sometimes he enjoys being with them so it is always a surprise when he rejects them, there is no consistency to his on-again/off-again attitude. He has done some great things (i.e. my cousin was in a Broadway show and for Christmas a few years ago he and my brother in law sent my sister and I to NY to see her -- for 4 days!!!-- he took off work and was a full time dad that week) and then he refuses to feed the kids dinner while I'm cleaning the house. Last night I snapped at him (in front of the boys, something I try not to do). Something must have sunk in because this morning, he asked both boys to go with him to Piglet's practice. I think he is struggling with depression but he won't see a doctor. It just hurts to see the hurt on their faces. [/QUOTE]
