I no sooner parked in my spot and my phone started barking. It was H. (I have the ring tone set to bark when he calls).
ROFLMAO!!!!!!

So I asked D what was wrong and managed to calm her down and then she was right as rain and wanted to go practice. H was then mad at me because that wasn't what he wanted me to do. I said I am confused. What did you want me to do? I wanted you to take her home. But H, she's happy now. You can't exacerbate a situation with a six year old. He said well now mom has saved the day and mom wins. I said it's not about winning. I said no one wins. What is important is that little girl. He just said "I'm not putting up with it anymore, WH."
I gotta disagree with your handling of this, WH. I think if you put up such a huge tantrum that mom has to come bail out dad, you get taken home and put in time out.
Sure, she's sensitive - I get that, I had very high maintenance kids too. But there have to be consequences to their behavior, and in this case, the only consequence to her bad behavior was that she got to get mom out of her evening off and make you come to her practice.
Now - is your H a total weenie because he couldn't handle it himself? Yes. He should have taken her home himself, or if he's coaching, he should have put her on the sidelines and ignored her. He sure shouldn't have called you, and that will be one good thing when you're out of the house, he'll have to figure this stuff out without falling back on you.
