We have a simple home(1 floor. 1bath. 2rooms) We live in a calm neighborhood, we don’t own extremely expensive things. And he wants a camera inside our home? For what? This camera can also record audio. We have a child together, we work and we come home. Why do we neeed a camera inside? I feel like it’s an invasion of privacy! I love being silly inside our home. I love yelling. I love singing annoyingly when I’m alone. Should I feel disrespected? Should he feel disrespected? He’s bringing out the “what do you have to hide card”.

As a cat owner, I like having a camera so I can see what the sound was without getting up. I’m also bed bound so I use it to see what’s going on. It helps me feel like part of the house. It’s helpful for my ptsd to confirm that there is indeed no invaders. I think there’s lots of good reasons to have a camera inside but YOUR needs and privacy are important, too. Knowing the reason he needs the camera could help you compromise. It’s unreasonable of him to deflect and accuse you. It’s normal to want privacy in your home!
