It's funny when you say you respect each other. my husband has friends that i wounder who makes each other more of a dummy. when he hangs with them during the day he has no respect for me and i lose all respect for him. i know life would be so good. it is sad because r 5 yr has nothing to do with him. he will keep saying to her why dont you hug me but u always hug mom. he should see that as a problem. thanks for the feedback
