Rant + advice needed... How can I ask my hubby to have patient with his kids? My son is 3 years old. As all three year old he is mischievous and curious, many whys, what's, etc. My hb have no patience to entertain him. He will ignore and shout loudly to ask him to dun disturb him. Basically give him a black face. I tried talking to him. He just brushed it aside and start quarrel with me. Say he very bz with work, his hp nv left his hands. Me on the other end. My work can nv be finish. I'm a shm btw. He nv reali helps with hse work and will only move when I ask him to, or when he notice my face change to black. If I tell him all these we will end up quarreling. I just hope he will have more patience towards the kids as he complained they are not close to him.

1. Understand that work and home is different. Men are more committed to work as this brings home the bread and butter. This is male ego. Women on the other hand are more warm in taking care of the household. This may not necessary be true throughout but in general this should be the case. 2. As a SAHM, the household is a woman entire world and be soft to the man by being more affectionate and showing to the man that the house is well taken care of, this may works. 3. The father loves his child too and expressing of love may be different. 4. Adjustment of mentality with more open communication may spice up a more warming and loving family.
