I think I'm figuring this out and it's a completely different answer than I expected. I'm being pushed into being the father when I'm not into it and don't want it. Child care, food prep, baby sitting, etc. I respect and encourage the mother/child relationship, but my boundaries are being crossed and I don't like it.
Unfortunately, my annoyance/anger has been not well placed as the kid is innocent after all, and my issue is with the adults. Kid still lacks parenting, but that is a different issue (and at the moment, not a primary problem).
Jeez, I can be really slow at times.
