AIO, that my husband is too careless with our child
My (36F) husband (46M) of 3 years and son (2M) loves walking, shopping, and playing together.
Of course I'm so glad they are spending time together because I didn't have much time with my dad, as my parents divorced when I was 4. I also need the time alone because I'm 4 months pregnant. My issue is that, when my husband takes our son out he seems to be careless and not keeping a very close eye on him. I might be too much of a helicopter parent, but my son had many accidents while they were out together. He had many bump and bruised on his head, he had to be taken to the hospital because he fell off the sleigh (that his dad was pulling), he fell off the seesaw last week because my husband thought he can turn around on it, they were window shopping and my husband went to the next window, did not held his hand and our son was following him but forgot he was on the stairs and hit his forehead and mouth on the steps. Today they went shopping and on the way to the car our son tripped and fell and broke a chunk of his two top frontal teeth. I am devastated, he was hurt and it's also something he might be wearing for the next 6 years or so. My husband said our son didn't held his hand strong enough, he was eating a piece of bread while walking so couldn't put his hands down to save himself and that his shoes are wrong and that's why he was tripping.
Whenever I'm with him, -which is a lot, because I'm a stay at home mom, while he's working,- I'm holding his hand and even if he's tripping I'm catching him. I'm pissed, tired, sad and don't know what to do.
I'm not sure I can ever trust him with our son or our new baby let alone the two kids together. I don't know what to tell him. I don't understand how he can't see he's not taking good care of our kid. Please help am I overreacting? Is every kid like that? Is every father like that?
Thank you for reading.
