Awesome, I'll just keep ironing and watching "Family Guy". I love that.

This morning he got son ready for school. He was not yelling, but I got a list of criticisms. At least he delivered them in a calmer tone!

Looks at gardeners whacking huge blackberry bushes "You could be doing that."

"What is this pink stain on the couch? IF you want to waste your time cleaning it, go ahead. I won't." (Kids make messes - it takes one minute to clean)

"It's a good idea to get S's pants cleaned. He is wearing these ones with a paint stain on them." (Kids make messes - he got the paint on them from having fun. The others are in the dryer.)

"You don't need to FOLD laundry - it wastes time" (I didn't ask for a manager, but thanks for the advice)

I swear he is convincing himself that all I do is waste time at home so that he can tell himself he doesn't need me. I'm so sick of being kicked around.

Advice?
