--I often shake my head in wonder at some of the stories I hear about couple's who find themselves trying to inspire their partner’s to take a more active role in the relationship.
--My wife and I never had much of a problem in that department. So I’m usually at a loss to understand just what in Sam hill the problem is. When it came to the simple thing's like just who was responsible for what we just pitched in and got the dang fool jobs done.
--There was none of the dividing job's by gender stuff that you see so much of today. If the dishes were dirty I’d wash or my wife would. If dinner needed to be cooked it was either or. Not wait until my wife got home from working all day to cook i usually had dinner waiting when she got home.
--Going right down the list was never a problem. What ever it was if it needed doing we just worked together.
--I guess we figured the whole marriage thing was a partnership where two people worked together right from the get go. I’m still at a loss to understand how it work's today. And can't understand some of the logic I hear to justify the behaviour of some people. But I guess that's just the way it is.
--I’ve always tried to let my children know that work's work and there was no dividing by gender in our house. Some caught on right quick to the principle and other's are still learning. But that's life I guess, a learning process. Hopefully when it come's time for them to start their families they'll have all the kink’s worked out.....
