thanks jarhead. the warning system is a good idea. i know before he would make me mad and i would hang up, and it would really make him mad. so he would call right back and tell me not to hang up the phone on him, it was rude. so that's one of the things i've stopped doing is hanging up the phone on him. even when i can't stand to reply to him, i don't do it. he has done it and i simply call him back and tell him not to hang up the phone, it's rude.
but i think your idea is a good one. i think i'll tweak it alittle bit. give him a warning, then if he does it again. simply tell him, you're yelling, i don't appreciate it. call me back after you've calmed down. goodbye. then hang up. that way, i'm not technically hanging up the phone. i'm just not waiting for him to tell me bye.
he is definitely a little off! when he does watch the kids, he either sits them in front of the tv with him, or they watch tv while he plays online poker or ps3. he can't get on my comp anymore tho, so poker is out. and he took his ps3 with him so he doesn't have that anymore. most of the time when i come back from doing whatever, they're all sitting in front of the tv or S is somewhere making a mess while H and D are in front of the tv.
