[quote=Anonymous]The tone and the yelling and the apparent disrespect need to be addressed simultaneously but separately from the clutter issue. I am more like you, DW is more like your husband when it comes to clutter tolerance. I hate clutter too, but have come to realize that you have to surrender to it a little when you have kids, because staying on top of it is a losing game. That said, come up with a reasonable compromise as to what he will accept and what you can reasonably do. You do have some obligation to help keep him sane, but it doesn’t require that you turn into him. Communicate like adults and work it out. The tone and yelling stuff is not ok and also needs to be addressed. That’s not helpful. Consider taking a break for 24 hours and getting away to talk.[/quote]
