[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird that you are posting this here seemingly as validation that you are right. This doesn’t sound like a man “lying,” it sounds like someone trying not to get dunked on by his own family. He burned dinner. That’s not a character flaw. When the response is a group stare-down and commentary from everyone at the table, people get defensive and dig in. The real issue isn’t the breadcrumbs, it’s a family dynamic where one mistake turns into a referendum on competence, and then a wife who races to DCUM. [/quote] This. Feeling sad for your children, yourself, and the future—over a burned dinner topping—is humorously overdramatic, OP. If you’re a good cook, offer advice at a calmer moment. Otherwise scrape off the breadcrumbs (which can be fickle) and offer a little grace. (It sounds like the instructions called for cooking the chicken and breadcrumbs together, which was too high/long for the breadcrumbs. Probably better to toast separately.)[/quote] I think OP was sad about living with someone who lies after they make a mistake. Not about the meal. There are people who like doing things they aren't good at or who have few skills and you just have to put up with their ineptitude. Most men don't cook. OP probably needs to learn how to cook herself. [/quote]
