No man I get it. I’m in a similar boat, minus the keeping kids and letting the spouse socialize. It’s important to know that resentment can be a normal feeling, but communication is key to making sure your concerns are heard.
As one Dad to another, just keep going. Do it for the kids not for yourself. One day they will be out of the house, and you are gonna look back knowing you did the best you could.
The worst part is now with the second one where he understands what we say, but doesn’t care and tries to kill himself creatively with everything he finds. The constant surveillance is draining me. It was the same with the first one.
We’re almost over the bump, the sun is coming back so better days are ahead, but in the moment, right now, I feel stuck and drained and my family life isn’t fun.
I know it will come to pass, but I’d punch a hole in the universe right now if I could
