Am I crazy?
I am a stay-at-home mom, and my husband wants a day to just play video games. I don’t mind him playing video games because everyone needs their decompression time. However, we have a 1-year-old, and he plays for 6-7 hours. I don’t mind if he comes home every day and plays for an hour or so, but 6-7 hours in one day is hard and insane to me. I’m home with our child 5 days, and then I work two days. So I will come back from work and have to be on baby duty. I just feel like I don’t really have a break, and that’s sooooo fine. I just want him to understand that right now we have to sacrifice some of our time to be a family and support each other heavily right now, but once our kid grows, it will be easier. However, I don’t know what to say to get him to understand. I don’t want him to think I don’t support him. He tells me all the time that he wants me to have time for myself, but it’s difficult when finances are a bit difficult. Sometimes I just need an hour or two, not 7 hours, you know?
