Tonight i told my oldest son i was proud of him, he did his chores today and took care of his little brother for me while i was working w/o complaints, evening making his dinner w/o me even knowing it! I told him he would be a good father one day. He said, "not like daddy...he's mean and yells too much."
First off, hubby is 27 and still works with his mom at a gas station out of town about 30 m away. But in his heart he is a musician. He has tried for over a decade to "make" it without a whole lot of success. this is very frustrating to him. Secondly, he has chronic pain from a back injury and now it is discovered he has TMJ and is presently suffering from that. Also, he has anxiety and does't get a whole lot of help from the medical community with any of these medical issues despite seeing doctors regularly. All of this combined has made him a frustrated, irritable and mostly miserable person. He IS playing at the Whiskey in LA on the 4th of July which i am hoping this turn things around for him at least in one direction.
My question is this: Should I tell hubby what my son said? I'm not sure if he will blow it off or take it to heart. Maybe i'm just the pushover??
