Hi all,
Need some advise please.
I am struggling with my partner on a few different things, one big one is that he does not connect much with our children, he doesn't spend much time interacting, ie is around but on phone or watching TV or on computer, it's not like it's never but it's certainly only occasional. I feel like i am the main one doing everything in the household and negotiating all our kids mental health and connection to family. He is aware of this and tries but just doesn't have it in him and I'm kind of sick of asking...
How many other people have this issue and how do you cope with it all.

Is this a new thing? Has anything changed in his life with work, life etc? Drugs / alcohol? Could he be depressed? If so then he might need some help with his mental health.
Or has he always been this way? Then if that’s the case it might just be the way he is. I do not understand men/fathers who are not engaged with their children but there are plenty out there.
