[quote=Anonymous]Pure divide and conquer is so much better. I think you need to have a bigger talk though. Not just “okay, so you’re on the birthday party” but “going forward, I would really prefer if we took more of a divide and conquer approach for X, Y and Z reasons, rather than both helping. What do you think about that?” The hardest part of pure divide and conquer (which we do very successfully) is keeping your mouth shut though. My husband is currently planning our kids birthday party, and IMHO, is making some not great choices… but I’m staying out of it. A mediocre 5th birthday party is NBD. A marriage where I’m constantly diving in to fix things, micromanaging, and my husband doesn’t “own” stuff like this? We hate each other in 5 years. Big picture![/quote]
