Parenting

Hi !

Got a difficult one to ask about a difficult situ.

Our young child has a habit of not listening and playing up in public (supermarket, etc) and needs to be told to behave, etc. This is a constant occurrence and is driving me to despair !

Partner does very little or when they see fit to do, but mostly very little. Allows themself to "spectate" these occurences in public and passes comments which attracts attention of customers, etc. Basically I feel that I am the person who is made to look and to be known as the one who is to blame and therefore I have a "reputation" in my partner's eyes.

This situ is getting really out of control - i lack patience but when this continues is it any wonder.

I have spoken to my partner about this, but well here we are again.

I feel as I am hitting my head against a wall all the time, our child is getting a bit afraid of me due to my reactions but then again is it any wonder?

Therefore I feel that my child's "influences" are going again me !

Not good situ, but I feel that it takes the work of two to solve this matter, pesonally !

Any advice, guidance greatly appreciated !
