Now, he says, things have gone too far—and he’s seriously considering divorce.
He wrote, “Another time, she accused me of trying to hog the kids even though I hadn’t been home all day. She hated me babywearing. I was screamed at for picking the kids up from her parents’ house once. She was at an appointment, and I was getting off work, so I thought it made sense. But she told me she’d decided to leave them with her parents, so I should respect that. I told her I was just as capable of taking care of them as she was.
She was hospitalized briefly a couple of months ago, and that’s when I reached my breaking point. I took a few days off work so I could stay with the kids, but she kept insisting I go back to work and let her parents take them until she got home. She even screamed at me from the hospital because I had the kids. She sent her parents twice to try to take them from me.
When she recovered, I told her things couldn’t go on like this. If this was how it would always be, we should divorce. She screamed and said I’d be the villain for destroying our family and breaking our kids’ stability. Even my own parents told me I should find a way to make it work. But she refuses to sit down and talk. Therapy is out of the question for her, and I don’t want the kids to keep witnessing fights every time I interact with even one of them.
Should I divorce her?”
