HELP, my partner is getting extremely angry when our twins cry...He doesn't seem to get it that he is not helping the situation...Its mainly only one twin that plays up that sets him off, but that twin is being subjected to his fathers unruly behaviour. He will start yelling at me whilst holding the crying baby, sometimes he has even pushed me & put his hands around my throat! He often throws things around the room when he goes into his 'physco' state. I cant describe it, its like something inside his head just cracks when the baby starts crying. I cant put up with this for the sake of the children but I don't know what to do? It would be really difficult for me to leave with two infants.Sad
Not that I want it to come to that as he would be a really good father, he's just not coping with everything. Plus he lost his sister before I fell pregnant & I think he has a lot of built up anger over that also. But do you think you can get men to go to counseling.

Hi - I wouldn't put up with this. Tell your husband that if doesn't seek help that you will leave and take the twins. It is for yours and the twins safety! He obviously is having trouble dealing with what has happened regarding his sister and then the children coming along - he definitely requires help.

While I agree with Scarlet that the MOST important thing is the safety of you and your baby, I know Relationships Australia have courses in Anger Management and also parenting for men. It seems obvious your husband is overwhelmed and I imagine twins can be twice as hard especially since you haven't had a child before.
