You are here

Oh my god! It's a Christmas miracle. He said I was RIGHT!!!

DH, bless him, came to me tonight with "SS16 isn't doing as well in school as he thought. I spoke to his mother, and we're dropping the hammer. No phone except to say goodnight to his girlfriend. No going out during the week."
And then he said:
"It's my fault. You've been after me for months to follow up. You were right."

Please, for one second, pretend those three sweet words were said to you! You. Were. Right. (Enjoy that feeling fellow stalkers! Heaven knows they're rare amongst us.)

His son, who just this weekend DH insisted would never lie to him, and that I was just a big ol meanie - poetically let his dad down. In exactly the way I predicted.

Sweet Smile

*happy dance*

Already done!! Biggrin

(I may rejoice here, but not to his face. It would have taken A LOT for him to have to admit how wrong he was)

Wow at this wack ass punishment. "No phone... except to say goodnight to his girlfriend" ??? WTf? & no going out 'during the week' but he can go out during the weekend?

HAHA parenting fails.

I'm lucky. My DH has even said to my skids..."If misSTEP tells you to do something, you should just do what she says. 99.9% of the time, it is the right thing to do!" He has mentioned many times that HE should just do what I think is best because it turns out better for him in the long run.

But yet, he still does whatever he wants most of the time. LOL

Haha, mine thinks the same of me, which is why these last six months he's been fighting me about his kid have been painful. He KNOWS I'm right, just doesn't want me to be. He'll tell MY kid "listen to your mom, you know she's right" but his pride and his son = denial.

Happy you have been validated and DH had to eat crow.

Why the ever loving eff would they allow him to "say goodnight to his gf?" Now if they were going to be the ones to dial the number, hold the phone to his ear, let him say "goodnight" and then hang up the phone then okay that would really sting SS ego and manliness LOL That would be funny!
