Lisa Love Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 My 3 yr old started Preschool at a public school. It’s not the best school but it’s something to get him out of the house and interacting. On day 3 my husband keeps nagging me about our son should take the school bus in the morning as well as afternoon. For now he only takes the bus in the afternoon. I got him ready this morning and told my husband to drop him off and he acted like driving him for 5 minutes was such a huge task. Our son is still adjusting and scared when we drop him off. I just feel like this man could care less about our child’s physical and psychological well-being. In addition he keeps bringing up changing his work schedule to the afternoon form 6pm- 2am. When I tell him maybe he should look for another job he talks about I wanna start my own business. This man is all over the place and stressing me out more than my child. Link to comment
Rose Mosse Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Sorry to hear this. Very frustrating and hurtful to hear. Are you able to take him to preschool yourself? It sounds like it's close by. Link to comment
Hollyj Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I don't understand why there isn't someone taking him and picking him up. He is too young to be riding the bus. That's nuts! Link to comment
Hollyj Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I read some of your old threads. You have been having issues with this guy for some time. he was a jerk then, and he is a jerk now. None of this behavior is new. Have you sought counseling? Are you going to stay with him? Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Do you both work? Do you both have cars? Link to comment
Lambert Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I don't think it's the right decision for a three year old to take the school bus either way. Is he in a car seat? Link to comment
Seraphim Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 School buses don’t use car seats . My son was on the school bus at 3 but on the disability bus so he was seat belted. However, with Covid I wouldn’t send a 3 year old to school. My son was in JK at 3. But really they can finger paint and play at home. Link to comment
FenixReborn Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 A three year old shouldn't be taking a school bus. When I was starting school I remember how much I disliked it and that was with my mom dropping me off and picking me up. So I can imagine how much worse it would be having to take a bus. He should be taking a bigger role in your son's life. When you are a parent, the child should be the top priority. If there are problems in the relationship, you need to address it for your sake and the child's. Link to comment
Lisa Love Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share Posted September 13, 2020 That’s what I said. He makes me feel like I’m crazy for being worried about a 3 yrs old riding a bus. It’s very close a 5 min ride. we have one car. He takes it to work and I wake up in the morning and get him ready. All he has to do is drive him and he fights with me on the way out the door. You’re right he’s been a jerk for years now. I’ve turned to my family for support and they have turned me down time and time again. Thanks guys I just needed someone to validate my concerns and I’ll do whatever it takes to make my son feel safe. Link to comment
Hollyj Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Are you going to stay with this guy? Are you going to get a job? Link to comment
Capricorn3 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 However, with Covid I wouldn’t send a 3 year old to school. But really they can finger paint and play at home. I agree. OP, do you work too?. Or are you at home? If at home, can't your little one stay home with you while all this Covid is still around? Link to comment
Hollyj Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 You need to do better for your child. He will start to remember these sorts of things. You are not putting his best interest first. Time to get a backbone and change things, or get out. Link to comment
