Question

General Micro-managing wife My wife likes to micro-manage everything at work and at home. As a result she often ends up doing a lot of the chores at home and even when it comes to taking care of our 4-year-old boy. While this is less work for me it also makes her very resentful. I am also worried of what message all of this is sending to our son. What should I do? - Johan

Answer

Answered by Shebby Johan my man, put your hands on her shoulders, look her in the eyes and say “Babe, I love you but please let me share in the chores please.”

Follow her around the house and insist on completing whatever chore she starts! All this with your son perched on your shoulders! You will irritate her so much, she will give in to sharing chores and your son will feel the love!
