I am so freakin angry right now!  I am so damn sick and tired of this crap.  Every single time my parents are around, it's always the same damn argument.  My husband can't stand my parents.  He tolerates them, but doesn't really like them, especially my mom, and every time she is here, we end up getting in the same fight.  Everything I do, no matter what if he doesn't like it or agree with it he says I'm acting just like her and that I am trying to "show off" to her.  Tonight Corey was being pretty miserable.  I was trying to clean up the kitchen (while my husband sat on his ass doing nothing as usual) and I asked Corey to please take his binder up to his room  (it's just a plain $1.00 binder that had nothing in it) and he started whining and said no, I don't want to.  Then I told him he could take it up to his room like I asked, or he I could throw it in the garbage, he started screaming and said "no, don't throw it in the garbage" so again, I said take it upstairs or it goes in the garbage, he again said NO, I don't want to.  We went back and fourth at least 3 times and I finally threw it in the garbage.  Well then he started screaming and throwing a fit so loudly, it was disturbing my husband, so he decided to go get the binder out of the garbage, give it back to Corey and take him upstairs with him to let him watch TV in our room.  I was absolutely furious!  I was trying to discipline our child and he completely underminded me.  So after sitting here steaming for a few minutes I went upstairs, told Corey to go to bed and asked my husband what in the hell he thought he was doing, and he said he was taking care of the situation.  I said, by completely underminding me and making me look like a fool in front of our son?  He has the nerve to say that I was just trying to show off and that I was mad because he was underminding me in front of my parents and not our son.  I told him I don't give a damn if my parents are here or not, if I am trying to discipline our son he needs to either be on the same page or stay the hell out of it.  Then, it of course became a big huge ordeal and he goes and starts in again about how I'm acting just like my mother and this happens everytime she's around.  I AM SO SICK OF HEARING THIS!!!!!!!  I am not acting any different, I would have done the same exact thing whether they were here or not!  Every time they are here it's the same damn thing!!!  I can not do a single thing without him saying it.  I swear I am about to just give up and walk out the damn door!  I cannot take it anymore and I am absolutely fed up with it!!!  What in the hell am I supposed to do?  Everytime my parents are here I can't do anything without him getting mad at me and saying I'm acting just like her, when I am not doing anything different!  Then, if the two of them don't agree on something, I'm put in the middle and expected to choose sides.  When they aren't around, we don't fight at all, but when they are here it seems like that is all we do.  I just don't know what to do anymore.  I am so sick of living like this.
