Hi all
I hope someone can help because I’ve got what is a really tricky situation, but probably one that is common?
I split last year from my now Ex Wife and live with my new partner. My children are 5 and 3 and she has a 7 year old. Generally the kids play really well and get on. They have moments obv.
My new partner though absolutely hates it when my kids either moan or lose their shit about stuff. She has a very low tolerance of it. I’m talking about when they won’t share before bedtime and one gets pissy. Or if they take something the wrong way and run away crying and hide under their bed … she finds the behaviour to be problematic for her and doesn’t want it in her life.
Shes basically said, resolve their behaviour and it’ll be ok but if not then we should split. Her problem with it is that she feels the bad behaviour moments will rub off on her kid and that she can’t stand it for herself. She finds 3/4 days together with them too much.
Back in Dec 19 we’d said that if things weren’t better by June we’d call it a day and things (from her point of view) prob aren’t there yet.
any comments would be really appreciated …
