[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question. All these posts about husbands not doing things at home, clueless about house, kids, helping dw, are they the ones who are detached from their family of origin? Can it be that all of their parents are from hell (dramatically speaking)? If they are not and are just regular people, can such a person truly be a good husband and a father?[/quote]

Sometimes, when husbands get into a living situation (as an adult) that is glaringly more favorable than how they grew up, it is such a huge disparity, the husband realizes what they are missing.  It is perfectly possible that some husbands choose their polar-opposite-from-their-mother wives for good reason. I know husbands that barely call their mother for their mother's birthday, because the mother is kind of mean, snarky, bitter and ill-spirited - surprise, the opposite of the wife.  The wife could tell the husband a million times to call his mom, but it does not change his mind about how he feels about the mother, and how he was treated, growing up. Not my circus, not my monkeys. [/quote]
