I'm with the husband on this one because marriage is a partnership where BOTH people pull their weight. How can people expect a successful marriage if the man is doing all the work. Yes, he's the head and the head is responsible for providing & protecting, but as his helpmate, she's supposed to bring that balance. If his business is struggling, he's right to ask his wife to contribute. I think the wife misunderstands the true meaning of marriage. Marriage is a partnership where BOTH have to make it work by any means necessary. This means the man plays his position, and the wife hers. Is it any wonder why many women want to be married? So their husbands can take care of them like daddy took care of the family. In most households, the man makes the money while the wife stays home and does nothing (You have very few wives that can be trusted enough to stay home and take care of the house). The problem is because the wife's mother didn't work, she feels she doesn't need to do the same. Strawberry Letters like these are the reason why I have a sour outlook on marriage, because who's to say if God sends a mate into my life, she'll play her role as my HELPMATE? I don't know, and I'm not trying to find out, so I swerve! Anyway, I'm praying for this brother hoping his wife comes to her senses and starts helping because at this rate, I don't see them staying together for long. He's at the point of no return because as he states, her selfishness has caused intolerable tension. This is why men need to be VERY careful about wanting to be the head, because they will meet some women who expect him to fulfill that role. By fulfilling that role, she doesn't work, but he has to make enough for her to stay home and do nothing. That may have worked in the 40's and 50's, but this is 2015, where it takes two incomes to run a household. Then again, he could be one of those men who believes in tradition, which states the man should be the sole provider so his wife can stay home. If that's the case, some of the blame goes to him for allowing his wife to run reckless with her selfishness.

More Teenage Foolishness
Just when I thought these stupid challenges died down, here comes another challenge: Teens trying to summon the occult. First off, the occult is demonic, and it's nothing to play with. Second, these students have too much time on their hands to try and drum up bad spirits. These are school-age children so you would think they're busy enough with school, but that can't be true if they have time to drum up evil spirits. You can't tell them nothing, in their mind "I'm Doing Me." Ok then, go ahead and "Do You." It's that mindset which is why society is in the shape it's in. I'm going to be real: Some kids know about the occult, others don't. The kids who don't know should not be trying to contact the occult because they're gonna get in touch with something they can't get rid of. I remember a story years ago that dealt with this very matter: Kids were playing with Quija boards, and late at night those spirits tried to take over their body. Their baby sister gets out of her crib on her own and goes outside on the porch to stare into the sky for hours. Parents wonder how she was able to do that on her own, but that's not my business. These kids think this occult is a game, but it's not. This is why I say if kids saturate themselves in extracurricular activities, they won't have time for this foolishness. They'll be too busy bettering themselves than getting in touch with the occult. The more I read stories like this, the more I feel sorry for my nieces because they are coming up in a crazy world. When you take God out of the equation, the door is opened to nonsense like this.
