[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The projection about OPs wife let’s me know that many feel it’s woman’s work to make ANY sacrifice no matter how pointless. [/quote]

I agree. What’s also interesting is that the projection and rage is directed at the wife an not the sister. It’s like sanity deserves punishment while selfishness and poor judgement get a pass and endless support. It’s fascinating. And really sad. [/quote]

This is really based in sexism. This is how women are treated in all socioeconomic groups today. [/quote]

The aggravation involved Op's wife trying to prevent her husband from helping out his own parents because she was embittered about some childcare that MIL did for SIL some time ago.  The whole thing sounded petty and extremely spiteful which is why she got called out for it.

As it turns out, the wife may not have been the complete shrew that she first appeared to be.[/quote]

Nah. We know who the shrew is here.

These are people who take advantage of other people including the husband who treats his wife like a day laborer. [/quote]
