Point 2 - You should write the cover letter. If that helps DD getting a good internship, why not?

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

So white ...

If she’s being a brat and can’t simply call or email them to ask/ remind them of something, that’s ridiculous and is probably the exact stuff you didn’t want to deal with when she decided to take on this venture.
If it’s a serious issue, like a tenant is violent or aggressive, or they’re not paying rent and facing eviction, etc... I can see her asking for your assistance in the matter, and you should *want* to be there for your wife, but she should still put on her big girl pants and take the initiative/ lead.

As for your daughter - she should write her own cover letter. If DD asks for help, of course help her, but your wife has no right to be mad at you for simply “not doing it”.

No, the tenant wants to renegotiate something in the lease - $150 maintenance fee per call. DW wants to keep it. I say let it go to make tenant happy. DW wants me to reiterate her position to the tenant.

So the wife wants the money and wants you to tell them. She is not a very stand up person. I would do it but let her know if the tenants doesn't renew the lease she can find a new one and deal with it.

OP is 100 percent right. His wife sounds like a nutcase and he should be putting solid boundaries around her crazy behavior.

My ex-wife wanted to breed dogs. I hated the idea and told her she was on her own. But soon enough I found myself cleaning puppy piss and shit from the carpet and all my socks and shoes were chewed to pieces.

It was her decision to invest in real estate. I wNted nothing to do with it. On point 2, she says I need to write college DD’s cover letter for an internship. I respectfully disagreed. Then when she got all backseat driver on me after I picked her up from work, I pulled over and asked her to drive and I walked home. I guess she missed her award for best actress in a drama!

On point one: I would probably do it,she clearly is not equipt or strong enough to handle business. On point 2: She is being an irresponsible mother if anyone being irresponsible. If it were me I would work with dd on it. Getting out and walking wasnt the best idea. Its best to completely ignore them at that point, like a child. She sounds a bit like a petulant child from your post.

He gets out of the car and walks if someone criticizes his driving, but she sounds like a child? Dudes on this website will circle the wagons for even the weakest specimen.

Sure if you reverse the genders you would be posting links to feminists sites claiming victimhood. Did you do anything in life on your own or are men always helping you out.

EXACTLY! I agree with this. My parents didn't write my cover letters (or anything) when I applied for college. When I recently saw some of my applications when I was unpacking boxes recently I cringed at what and how I wrote. However, it was my own work.

DD should write her own cover letter.

You could review it and offer suggestions but I strongly think she should be the one to write it.

OP are you the guy whose wife was mad because you didn’t write your children’s application letter a while back? If so the dynamic has changed very much for you. You still sound like a victim, and you don’t sound like you handled this situation like an adult. As adults, neither you or your wife behaved respectfully or disagreed or solved problems as adults and you’ve both infantilized your child.

So, did you apologize, OP?
