    I would not ask him anything - just tell him you are off out & he is babysitting - and then just go!!

    I totally agree RCB...he has got too used to this - which is why he won't change. You need to show that you mean business.

    Don't ASK him permission, you need to tell him straight. Then he has to deal with it..if he doesn't like it then he can stuff it ;)

    Bella - you dont ask him to look after the kids, you say (as walking out the door) 'I'll be back later watch the kids':D

    Take it slowly, but you've got to try something or you'll end up even worse x
