My boyfriend takes the wifi cord with him to work: What can I do?

Run … that crazy … unplug the tv ?? Wow he’s crazy find a real man !!

Wtf??? Girl… leave… why even ask this question? And kinda dumb when it’s the same bill whether you use it 24hrs a day or 2. Just buy yourself a extra Wi-Fi cord. You’re allowing it to happen.

Gps is accurate. He’s lying. He’s a control freak. And in a dangerous way. You need to get a sitter, get a job, and leave. Like tomorrow! Before he hurts you. Before you end up an episode on ID.

Yuk! That’s one unhealthy relationship. He is just controlling you. Get out of the relationship, that’s just an awful way to live! I couldn’t even imagine my partner doing something like this and thinking it’s reasonable or ok. Please get out of this situation :bouquet:

You are in a bad situation of dependency. If it were me, I would find a way to make money and save for myself and my child or you will have a long road ahead dealing with this. Go donate plasma, work from home, start babysitting other peoples kids anything you can do to earn some money if your own. If the decision was mutual for you to stay home and he was fair that’s one thing, but from your post it sounds like he is controlling everything. Best of luck to you and I do hope you find a way out, or you are not breaking this toxic chain for your child.

Haha, go get child support on him and pay for the child care that way so you can work. That’s literally the dumbest shit I’ve read today. You are doing a job. You’re raising y’all’s child so he can bring in money to pay the bills.

Wow he sounds like a real jerk

Please leave. This is so sad to read.

My fiancé is the only one who brings in any money and pays and we get almost no help at all. He’s never taken the WiFi away. Not saying we haven’t had our fair share of arguments about money and needs but at the end of the day he still gets what ever we need for this house and if we can’t get extra things he stresses it but has never made me sit with nothing to watch or do. You need to tell him he’s got to change. You need to leave if he doesn’t. That’s horrible to take things away from you and your child

I wish a MAN would I stay home with me and my fiance’s 3 kids and he works Everytime he gets paid he gives me at least 160 a week if not more to get the kids whatever they need and whatever I need or whatever it may be he pays the bills but I’m home taking care of his kids which is harder then most jobs :exclamation::exclamation: and to take the cord so even the baby can’t watch cartoons that’s real low down like he is basically using you as a free babysitter and his slave you better leave or put your foot down but of you like that treatment then so be it :exclamation::exclamation:

This is financial abuse. He is trying to make you feel like you don’t contribute because you don’t have a job you leave the house for. But being a stay at home parents is a full time job you never leave. And him doing things like taking the wifi cord is absolutely gross. You need to find a way out for the sake of you and your child because this will not get any better. And as for the GPS location, it’s pretty accurate. If he had nothing to hide he wouldn’t have a problem with you seeing his spending. You need tonreach out to family, friends, or a women’s shelter to get help and get out. It’s financial abuse now, but it can turn really quick.

This is domestic abuse hun, he doesn’t have to hit you to be abusive. He is breaking you down piece by piece and controlling every aspect of your life you need to reach out for help and leave. I know that’s scary and hard but the alternative is worse. Please think about not only yourself but your child too, don’t let them grow up thinking this is the norm that this is what a healthy relationship looks like and ask yourself how long before his narcissistic abusive behaviour is turned towards your child.

He’s a liar and that’s abuse. I’d lose his ass

Hell nah. Leave him. Get a job. Get any assistance you can get including childcare. File for child support. Agree on custody\visitation however you need to and be done with that! That is a form of abuse whether you know it or not. He is controlling you. Not ok. It could also get much worse. Get out now. If you have family or a friend you can go stay with first thing even better. And throughout the years, he is going to try and bully you, scare you and anything else he can do to get his way and still have some type of control over you as the mother of his child. Don’t fall for it. Don’t let him do it. Stay strong and stick to your guns. Eventually find a good man that will treat you good.

He’s financially abusing you, leave him, it’s a way to control and belittle you and you deserve better than that. Getting a job won’t fix it because I’m sure the abuse will then manifest in another form. Leave, look into daycare assistance for your child, get a job, and move on with your life.
