3 yr old being the mature one

BPD h trying to pick a fight with me while I am making dinner and my 3 yr old says "stop arguing". He didn't like the first dinner I made "because I didn't make it right". He's sitting on his ___ playing games on his phone after he just finished his nap after a couple hours of work. I went to work then was at the hospital today because I am sick, I have bronchitis, got four prescriptions, but here I am catering to him! I made a second dinner, which he still didn't eat. So sick (literally) of his ___. He told our daughter he was arguing with me because "your mom is a flake, don't ask her to do anything cause she will f**k it up". I am closer to done everyday.

WOW I am so sorry for both you and your child.
I learned a very important lesson from an ex boyfriend. Never ever say something nasty about a child's parent. This is because that child is partly from that parent so the child takes that as a reflexion of themselves. So what he says about you may be what she starts to think of herself. I will always be grateful for my friend (yes we are still friends) teaching me that. I have kept it in mind whenever I speak of a child's parent in front of them.
I am so so sorry you are enduring this. You deserve so much better.

I'm sorry to hear that Smileypants
It's super tiring and hard taking care of a household when you're sick with bronchitis and your partner isn't showing sympathy or empathy.

He almost seems more angry when I am sick, like he is punishing me for getting sick.
