Wife belittles me in front of our three teenage kids.

How am I supposed to feel or react, if my 17 year old son and 15 year old daughter always tries to be a family boss and are always put on a red carpet by my wife?
I am so sick of this kind of life, any argument about any misbehaviour of my kids ends up with my wife pointing loudly that kids already achieved more than me in my life and I should at least just shut up!
And it does not matter if I complain about daily things thrown around, general ignorance to my requests for help or something broken and just left to rot in the middle of a garage.
Kids are always right and I am the bad guy, who is worth zero, with no achievements and no voice in the house.

You're in a toxic environment. If they choose to reject your sentiments, it's best if you'll try to be distant for a while. Kind people tend to be bullied or be hated just because they are kind. They don't react instead they just follow. Supposing I am in your situation, I'll choose to walk away, let go, and move on. When the dust settles, I will talk to the people involve. It's up for them if they'll continue to treat me badly or not. The important thing is that I was already done voicing out my concerns/sentiments. By that time, I'm sure, I no longer care.

Be the bigger person each time and lead by example, and you will see your kids rooting for you in front of their mom..and you will earn her respect too, trust me..

This is really sad . A wife should respect her husband irrespective of his status. To compare you with your kids is really awkward . You should call and find out the reason behind this nonchalant attitudes or better inform her parents to caution their daughter because this might lead to been disregarded by your kids. I feel you pain bro . Just be praying for her as well, she will soon change . Also you should support your family financially and otherwise, may this problem may be because she thinks you are not doing enough for the family.
