Need to vent and have parenting through MLC question. As I am making a nice 4th of July breakfast H just decides to leave for a walk!

I ask casually: should we wait for you or eat without you? He asks: what are you making? When I answer he says "nah" and leaves.

Unfortunately children are in the room. Lord, after they watch this all for years I wonder if they will consider this all normal social/marital behavior? I feel like I am giving them a doormat 101 tutorial. Anyone out there living with MLCer and kids have advice on how to handle this with kids?

Gotta LOVE the selfishness of MLC. I wonder if the planet will ever stop revolving around him?

Going on cheerfully "as if/PMA" with my kids.
