I think most of these problems could be solved with these two classes.

For men: Women like it when you talk to them and listen to what they say.

Featured exercise: Repeating what she said back to her in your own words until she says, "Yes, that's what I said." (even if you still disagree with her, at least she'll know that you did so with a perfect understanding of her point of view. It really works.)

For women: The male ego: It's there for a reason. Either put it on a very long leash or leave it alone.

Featured exercise: How not to neuter your significant other, an interactive experience. (Asking a guy to take care of the kids is acceptable. Asking him to change diapers in public is not. Asking a guy to stop and ask directions is typically unnacceptable. Asking him to stop and check a map is a good comprimise. Asking a guy to even touch your purse when in view of somebody else is just plain wrong. Poke until you find the line and then just don't cross it.)

Here's a freebie for ya.. The noise means "Get off your dead ass and get in here and help me. There's no reason I should be doing this while you're sitting on your ass in front of the TV. I work all day, too."

But she doesn't work all day...

She does if the house is clean, the groceries are bought, the kids are taken care, of and the laundry is done.

...Do I have the option of putting on 'Shrek' for my boss, and taking a nap while she watches it?

...Do I have the option of sitting at my desk in my robe until noon?

...Do I have the option of sending my coworkers to play at OTHER employees cubicles so I can take a long hot bath?

Oh, God, no! Not a BATH! My goodness! The horror of it all! :halo:

I'm just telling you what the banging usually means...

Cook breakfast.
Do the dishes.
Cook lunch.
Do the dishes.
Cook dinner.
Do the dishes.
Do the laundry.
Clean the house.
Grocery shop.
Run errands.
Entertain the kids.
Entertain the husband.
If the kids are in school, that comes with a whole list of new tasks...

Women really don't have it any harder than men (especially if the men have an office job), and vice-versa.

I've done the stay-at-home dad thing...I know what's involved. I never indicated what she did wasn't work...I'm saying she doesn't work 'all' day. Remember, it's FUN to hang out with kids. The things I've missed in their lives because i've been away sorta suck...however, we're just glad at least one of us can stay home with them.

I agree that it's fun to "hang out" with the kids.. But there's the normal parts of childhood.. bickering, illness, boredom, temper tantrums, whining.. etc. Those are more work than fun...

The last three don't happen with my kids...at least not for more than about 2 minutes..

Boy are you in for enlightenment.. They still look pretty young, but they look like they're about as close in age as my niece/nephew. :rotflmao:

 

[dmp]

No...they are not allowed to throw tantrums, or whine (More than a few seconds)...They know better cuz we love them enough to beat them.
