This morning

I hadn’t been able to sleep well last night, my boyfriend and I bickered about his daughters behavior after she went to sleep. Instead of laying in bed, I decided to get up and clean the house and do some laundry. About an hour or so later his daughter wakes up and asks where her dad is. I inform her he’s asleep and tell her she can try and wake him if she’d like. She asks if she should and I tell her I don’t care it’s up to her to where she smiles big and runs up to wake him. Almost an hour late I go upstairs to put the laundry away and see my boyfriend trying to sleep and his daughter obnoxiously playing games on his phone with the volume on. He kicks some of the clothes I was folding off the bed, but I ignore it and continue putting things away and folding HIS clothes. About 30 minutes later when I go back up to grab the dirty clothes or if the bathroom, he makes some snide comment about me being rude (for his daughter waking him up). Of course he wouldn’t be upset with her. She has her own damn room and the whole house and yet she choose to lay next to him with the volume up, annoying him and instead of getting mad at her or telling her to play in her own room, he gets mad at me. 

 

If I wasn’t high risk pregnant I would leave because it’s this same b.s all the time. His daughter gets annoying or obnoxious and it’s MY fault. 

How about you parent your kid for once

Well by that ending statement I know you know that it is him and his crappy parenting so no need for advice. I hope things goes better for you with your pregnancy and you are better than me because I would have left his unfolded clothes on the floor where he kicked them for when he needed them.

Well, you shouldn't be blamed for everything she does, but I think you're fair game for this one.  You told her she could try to wake him up if she liked, knowing he was asleep.  You could have just told her to go back to bed and to leave her father alone.  I'd be annoyed with you, too.

I should mention that he woke me up 2 hours prior to help him find his car keys he thought I lost and that we argued last night about his daughter and I told him last night I no longer wish to play the parent to her. 

 

When my little wakes up I get up no matter what to care for her. Having gotten little to no sleep, I didn’t have the patience to “keep her entertained”, as she isn’t exactly nice to me.

My boyfriend even tried to make me a cup of coffee and sit next to me on our swing outside to try and apologize and I kid you not, she leans over across her dad to look at me and has the nastiest, evil glare on her face. When I ask her why she is glaring at me ( trying to get her dad to see) she sits back up, looks up and him, gets an evil smile and shrugs. When he says nothing, I scoot away and say “that’s nice” and he gets mad at me and now they’re inside snuggling and ignoring me.
