You're a joke.

Truth hurts. Or you wouldn't be so butt hurt by my comment.

Truth? You have to be stupid or just a bitter man-hater. An ounce of logic would derail you idiotic post.

Yes, & he should also write all his DD's papers for her. If it helps her get good grades, why not?

You guys have truly shone a light on my inadequate parenting. I'm off to do my daughter's kindergarten homework for her. /bye

Um, no, she should write her own damn cover letter. Cover letters are not that hard to write, and she's of the age where she needs to learn how to write one.

I would gladly write a cover letter for my kids: better internship, better job, easier future. I hate cover letters and I never read them when hiring.

I hope you never complain about your clueless boss or the millennials who don't know anything because this is how they get to where they are.

I complain for different reasons, like why new HR makes us jump through hoops and produce a fake paperwork or schedule fake interviews. This is the reason I would write that useless cover letter. It's a formality that nobody cares about and it's easy to write when you know what's needed, don't take it seriously and use the required lingo.

Disagree. My wife benefits from my work income, but I would never ask her to get involved when I was having a tough time -- particularly if she was opposed to my entering that particular line of work in the first place.

Then you don't have a partnership of any kind.

True, his wife makes major financial commitments and exposes the family to liability then realizes she is too much of a child to play business lady.

OP stop sock puppeting.

Not OP, nice try. I feel sorry for your husband if that's the partnership you have.

You feel sorry for my husband because we help each other when called upon? Because we don't hold grudges or enact dramatic scenes on the side of the road? Because we don't hold each other in contempt and call each other names? Okay, I'll let him know he has your pity for the fact that he's a grownup in a happy relationship.

While your at it let him know you know you thinks its perfectly acceptable to make major financial commitments, like mortages against his wishes/opinion/advice and expose the family to liability then toss it in his lap if you are not adult enough to manage it. And most importantly call him names for thinking you should step up and handle something as trivial a tenant. Oddly, you dont have a problem with his childbride calling him names for expecting her to be an adult. Yes , i feel for him if you view op's wife as displayng those qualities you claim to value.

He asked me to thank the semiliterate misogynist for his sympathy. So thanks.

"misogynist " typical DCUM too stupid to defend a position and fall back on a name to deflect from their stupidity. Lets try this, explain where at any point, my response warranted "misogynist ". Poor little baby, some disagrees with you and they must be bad because your feels are all hurt. I feel even more sorry for him now.

You are already a step ahead of us. My kids didn't have any homework till middle school, and, even then, it was an hour a week.

I’m a woman and I get where OP is coming from.

1. Who among us hasn’t had a kid beg for a pet and promise to take care of it, then not want to take the dog for a walk or scoop the litter box? Or a kid who begged for lessons or to start a new hobby, like tennis or something, and we go buy everything they need then they lose interest when they find out how much effort it takes? I’m not picking up crap for a pet I didn’t want, and I wouldn’t take crap from a tenant I didn’t want either.

2. I never did my kids’ homework and I certainly wouldn’t write a cover letter. It’s not even the child asking for help (which I would happily provide), it’s the other parent demanding OP do all the work. No way. That’s messed up.

3. I’ve never gotten out of the car like OP but I’ve walked out of the room. DH is such a “helper” sometimes. It’s annoying AF when he’s a backseat driver. I can’t count how many times I asked if he’d rather drive. I wanted to kick him out of the car, but it never occurred to me to get out and walk. At home, sometimes he’ll offer unsolicited advice to “help,” especially with dinner. If he does it too much I’ll just leave the room and tell him to do it himself since he knows more about it than I do. I don’t see anything wrong with my response (I’ve aske him to stop before and he didn’t) and I think OP’s response was similar. After realizing that he needed to actually help or be quiet, DH has stopped trying to micromanage things as much, and I feel more comfortable asking for help if I need it.

They think it has to be real and stress over nothing. After the first one, they can rewrite it. Just like writing the first review for the employee or a recommendation letter. It's easy after the first one.

While your at it let him know you know you thinks its perfectly acceptable to make major financial commitments, like mortages against his wishes/opinion/advice and expose the family to liability then toss it in his lap if you are not adult enough to manage it. And most importantly call him names for thinking you should step up and handle something as trivial a tenant. Oddly, you dont have a problem with his childbride calling him names for expecting her to be an adult. Yes , i feel for him if you view op's wife as displayng those qualities you claim to value.

He asked me to thank the semiliterate misogynist for his sympathy. So thanks.

"misogynist " typical DCUM too stupid to defend a position and fall back on a name to deflect from their stupidity. Lets try this, explain where at any point, my response warranted "misogynist ". Poor little baby, some disagrees with you and they must be bad because your feels are all hurt. I feel even more sorry for him now.

Hey! It's the dunderhead from the garbage pile! I knew your vitriol seemed familiar!

More deflecting and name calling, I would do that too if I was too stupid to defend a comment. Pathetic.

Maybe she could use some assistance? Not everyone knows how to write one. I agree he shouldn't do it for her though. But, it doesn't have to be all or nothing.

Even though you did not agree with the real estate issue, you really should assist your wife now.
She really needs your help & support right now and as her husband she could use you as her rock.

I can see how your wife finds it hard to have a conversation with you. All you know is insulting, and walking away. You are worse than I thought. You should consider yourself lucky you fooled somebody for a period of time to marry you!
