we just had an argument and i really feel bad about it. i've been doing chores since 8am since we don't have a helper. having a child makes my work goes slow as i have to check on what she's doing. i made for him some coffee in the morning, he took a nap for almost 2 hrs, prepared lunch and set it on the table, cleaned the dishes, tooked the dried cloths and fixed them back at the cabinet, bath my daughter. by 5pm he told me we're going out and prepare quickly for the 3 of us and so i did. right after i finished dress up my daughter i fixed myself. while dressing up suddenly, he shouted and was mad. coz our daughter found a nose spray and used it alone,then her nose bleeds. Then he blamed me for everything. i got so too mad as i was inside our room and our child was in front of him. he was busy playing the ps3. i was so very mad that instead of taking her and calming the child he continued playing while nagging me. the nose spray was inside the bag and probably our child took the bag and tried to find something inside. Is it my fault? really i'm so tired and i'm not talking to him. gggrrrr

Sorry to hear that but both of you are really concern with regards to the safety and well being of your child. But i really don't like how your husband reacted when he was still busy playing PS3 instead of attending to your child since her nose was bleeding. Hope your man should be more considerate and loving towards you and your child. It is his responsible to keep his family safe and with number one priority, not focus on games or other things. Anyway it is much better for the both of you to talk, specially share your feelings and thoughts to your husband so that you can be both cleared when this happens again, wish not.

i wish too that it would not happen again. but recently he seldom plays the ps3 instead he just watched tv, at least when watching tv his attention is not the same when playing the ps3 .

Children get into things. And he's her parent too. He's got just as much responsibility as you do. And he wasn't doing anything...

Of course it's not your fault, you have done a lot in your part and that time you were busy to fixed your self. So it is his responsibilities since he is finished tidying up himself so he must look after for your daughter. Have you ask him to watch your daughter while you are busy? because kids usually play around and curious in any thing and they need to be watched by an older one.

It not your fault.He should have help your too.Maybe your should explain the situation to him.Like saying I am tired and i hope your can help me too or Please help me take care of your daughter too when i am busy with house work.That how my girlfriend said to me when i am lazy i don wish to do house work.She will ask me direction initially gently but with a motherly command voice.I will also grumply silently and do those chores.

whenever we talk about the responsibilities at home and even told him that i need help, he always says it's not his job to do home chores. it's ok with me to do all the house chores but i'm not a house wife, i'm also a working mom. i guess it fare enough that he at least do some part of it even just to take care of our daughter when i'm busy. but let me try to talk to him more sweetly and with a motherly command voice thanks for sharing / advice

i always tell him at the same time whenever we get the same argument but still he don't mind after all. that's why sometimes i just ignore him. thanks a lot for the advice

Of course its not your fault. You are both responsible for the safety, well-being and overall care of your daughter. I think its very sad that a PS3 seems more important to him than his own child. I dont doubt that he loves both of you dearly and maybe, him being mad at you was a reaction to the shock of realising that your little girl could have been in danger. Hopefully, he will switch off the ps3 next time he is supposed to be watching her. If you still went out, I hope it was somewhere nice and you were all able to enjoy it

hmmm... definitely not your fault. i am just wonderin' how old your husband is? it seems that he is still engaged to this computer/electronic games that he didn't bother much 'bout his own child. but you know what, i recommend you to watch "fire proof". though, not so sure where can you grab a copy. if only i could send it... this is really a good movie. it deals with marriage.

well actually he's old enough to play PS3. I don't mind if he play PS3 as long as he don't stick his eyes on it everytime. i'll try to find that film, thanks a lot for your respond. Have a nice day
