Personally my marriage of 4 years I (28M) and wife (30F) have been together for 10 years in total. 4 years married it’s been getting stale, I’m constantly the person to get yelled at or fed all the problems to solve on top of working 55-60 hours a week to fund her pipe dream of becoming a nurse.

A year ago my MIL decided she was going to break up with her girlfriend and show up at my house, the agreement was once she was collecting disability she’d start paying for bills etc. the agreement was also when needed she would be watching our son (4M), is per usual instead of my wife asking her mom to help with cleaning,cooking and care every day it’s thrown at me aggressively because my wife “can’t manage” to be a mother and a student and work her part time job.

My MIL and wife just plop my kid down in front of an iPad, TV or gaming console and don’t bother to actually interact outside of maybe 15/20 mins here and there. He’s severely delayed in his milestones because it’s “easier” to give him what he wants (I.E. TV, safe foods, video games, phones). He doesn’t even want to try and potty train because he doesn’t want interaction.

I’ve lost control of my home, and my duties as a father. I’m working myself into a constant bit of anger and aggression because of my lack of control. I know there’s no more “us” so long as I propose her mom gets the fuck out of my house. All signs point right to this being the end.

Last night we had an argument after she kept pushing my son to beg me for my Xbox to play Minecraft, every no that I had given was met with resistance from her and pestering him to keep asking me. I pit my foot down and told her if she hooked it up I’d grab it and smash it in a million pieces. Now the Xbox isn’t the problem it’s the backlash from my son I get when I have to put him down and feed him for 2 weeks to break the 1 day of having the Xbox.

The whole breakdown yesterday was how tired I am and how easy she has it and I’m pissed off and done.

I’m at my wits end, just wanna make sure I’m validated in my decision.
