Wouldn't your prayers serve a better purpose if they were focused on helping your husband mature and put his family life first?

I thought if the OP understood that he might have been coming from a legitimate place of feeling hurt, rejected, belittled and unbalanced... she might have a little compassion for what he is going through.


The only issue I have with what you are trying to say - is if you look at what she wrote he is coming across like a poor little rich boy. He is acting like he is 'entitled' to these things, and he is showing NO compassion for anyone else! He is adding things to the mix so that he can be upset. He totally disregarded his wife's feelings and effort to make his birthday something special. I don't know if compassion is what he needs at this point.

I believe buckifn has a point.

Why can you only go on a weekend? Why not hire a babysitter during the week?
