If your DH is refusing to allow you to "co-parent" and is not accepting the punishments you decide, then he needs to be 100% responsible.

i was afraid that would happen i love my husband very much and in many ways yes my fav is my son but i love his son very much... and i agree completely w/ all the advice i really do...and i always thought that my marriage would not be the one that would end bc of my ss but i think eventually it will be and not so much bc of the ss more bc the dh will not back me... i really thank you all so much for all of your advice

This happened to me about an hour ago....long story short, SS3 asked to watch TV and I suggested he go play with his toys instead; Netflix was on but no one was watching so it sort of turns itself off and goes to a black screen. A few minutes later I hear SS3 in the kitchen asking DH if he can watch "his tv" now. DH started off with, "Maxwell is watching TV (on, but not playing), you can ask her if you can watch it" so I cut in real quick "Dad...we talked about this" and so he went on to tell SS3 "well I think its time to play with our toys, we've already watched movies today" and of course SS3 ran off pouty face to his room to go play.

Me and DH have talked and talked about this, I've reminded him several times that when he passes the 'decision maker' torch to me in front of SS (especially if the answer is "no") that he is setting me up to be the bad guy and that's not fair to me; I should be the one that gets to "yes" to having fun or going to get icees but until DH learns to say "no" that won't be happening.

i have the same problem but its crazy bc my DH always says no to our son but never to SS.... so im not sure if he feels bad bc our son lives w us full time and he is trying to make up for that ... but my SS lives w us and sees his BM only every other weekend.... so i dnt kno im am getting really fed up w all the crap my son gets pushed to the side all the time like last night for example im cooking and DH was about to go pick him check up from his mother... and SS says i want to go and he was going to leave our son at home im like awwww hell naw lol... i said well you cant take one and not the other bc if we are going to play like that i will take my baby and we will do something by ourselves ok fine ill take him im like really they are both your kids and all you are doing is picking up a check how hard is it ... needless to say he took both but i have to guilt trip him into it... but i never take one kid and not the other anywhere....
