Dear Doug: Demanding Dan
Dear Doug:
My husband, Dan, is unemployed, sits up late drinking and watching TV and gets angry when I wake him in the morning to care for our infant son when I go to work. He wants to hire a child care provider, but I've explained to him we can't afford it"with my four children from a previous relationship, along with his three kids for whom we have to provide"until he gets a job. He doesn't even look.
On top of this, Dan accuses me of cheating and not caring about our family, right in front of our 2-year-old son. I'd like to stay in the marriage, but Dan refuses counseling.
Signed,
Exasperated
