Am I being unreasonable
So, playing football outside with my 4 yo, dad was there too. He disappeared inside and came out with the soap and water and started washing the flags, which is basically the garden so we can't play anymore.
Then gets annoyed with LO who wants to then help....
Question why couldn't he have just let us play? The flags did not desperately need cleaning, to be honest it's not something that has ever occurred to me to do!

He just gets an idea in his head and then has to do it! But if I brought it up he'd find something that I did that I shouldn't. Like when I say about him being on his phone, he throws that I do back in my face. But I can multitask, he cannot, like he cannot even hear when he is looking at his phone!!
I suppose all I can say then is that you are definitely not being unreasonable. This was totally unfair on your child. I hope you can bring your son up so that he has a better attitude with his partner. I don't mean that to sound nasty, I just feel for you for having to bring a child up with a man that you can't discuss issues with. Some men are so childish, I wonder how they get through life

That sounds really unfair to stop a 4 year old from playing. I would put money on there being an underlying issue and he was proving a point. Either that or he is selfish and inconsiderate. My daughter is also 4 so I am imagining this happening if I was playing with her and it has made me angry. Is he the type of partner that you can have it out with? as I couldn't leave that one alone
