I am so frustrated. I need to vent, and I am looking for some advice. I have 2 boys and my husband has 3 children (two with special needs). We have his children every Wednesday for dinner and every other weekend (except for 1 who we have all the time). My husband's ex has been dropping off the kids on Wednesday at 5:00 for dinner, but my husband doesn't come home from work until 6-6:30. I have been with his kids, but mine are at their dad's. SO my ONE break (I am a kindergarten teacher) from kids is Wednesday, but I have to stay home with them until he comes and gets them. I asked him today if his ex could drop them off when he is home and you would have thought that I just asked him to get rid of his kids all together. He said if I don't want them then we would do away with Wednesday dinners because he only gets them for 2 hours anyways. I immediately said "no no no" I will watch them, but now I am angry. I am with kids all the time. I don't get a break. I clean, I cook, I do EVERYTHING and I feel so down. I make little money teaching and its almost a joke to him that I am not "contributing" financially even though all of his kids and my husband are on my insurance and I have to pay out of pocket. Every time I try and ask him a question like "how about his ex drop them off later when he is home" I get a really rude, manipulative, and sarcastic response back. He is not nice to me, has slapped me across the face and pushed me when he was frustrated. But when its good...its really GOOD and I am so afraid to leave because I do love him. I know I need counseling. I just need HELP.
