He's a thinking man and we're satisfied. Only support people like Laura Schlessinger if you support you and your children in endless war. Have you seen one of the houses Schlessinger cleans? There's a guest house and pool house, also. Alot of room for "family values" to have extended family (Lew must have grandchildren by now) for the holiday. Schlessinger is a big joke in her neighborhood and what fools she makes of some people. There will always be a percentage of followers to buy her products. She doesn't actually have original ideas as she claims, the good advice can be found elsewhere. Her books can be traded or found in thrift stores, yard sales if it's important to have one. Supporting Schlessinger's housing is like supporting the next Iran war. Thinking people can figure out there won't be much time for sex when they have to work more to support more war. Soon your children will be needed for a war machine. Schlessinger has a physiology Ph. D., her use of doctor is misleading. She's already started "hate" toward Islam type speech in her local column. If you believe in her "good vs evil" I understand you spending your money to support her lifestyle. If you do think for yourself and don't agree with her hate and support of wars, then be careful. You could be paying for her philosophy with your children's lives. "MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR" is just as relevant today as it was in the past, and you can do it with real family values in a Schlessinger free zone. People like Schlessinger are just working it to get your money and add a few more sheep to the flock. Think about it.

I would ask him why he stayed in his miserable marriage. He always answered:<BR/>* after child support, he would not have any money to live on;<BR/>* he would greatly resent his wife's new husband raising and influencing his children;<BR/><BR/>I was surprised that he thought his W would be such a hot commodity -- I would say, similar to drunken housewife's note, do you think people will be lining up to marry an unemployed fat woman with multiple small children?? He honestly seemed to think so. <BR/><BR/>In the end, they did divorce, but he got child custody and no one was lining up to re-marry his ex W.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-1162110816557238152006-10-29T04:33:00.000-05:002006-10-29T04:33:00.000-05:00The great irony is that the great majority of wive...The great irony is that the great majority of wives out there would love to have a husband who would devote as much thought to their marriage as you do, 2am. I agree with the drunken housewife -- I would love to hear your wife's side of things, to be able to read what the hell she is thinking. Or not thinking. --AnaisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-1162105350241400832006-10-29T02:02:00.000-05:002006-10-29T02:02:00.000-05:00Dr. L. would say that I should do it all, but eh, ...<I>Dr. L. would say that I should do it all, but eh, screw that.

I'm curious to hear what has gotten her to this place. She doesn't seem to be willing to work on fixing your financial straits or your marriage or getting healthier. If she thinks her life will improve if you guys divorce, well, she's probably not focusing on reality (sorry, but overweight women with small children and limited funds do not have an easy time finding new husbands, and running two households takes more cash than one). Maybe she's really depressed and just not thinking about the big picture. Reading mysteries is a great form of escapism, and so is shopping for cute kids' clothes.<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, you are right that we can't change anyone but ourselves, so you cannot change your wife. <BR/><BR/>Incidentally reading the book caused no feelings of defensiveness or anger in me, but then again, I already do make a huge effort to make my husband feel appreciated, and we do have sex. I don't do enough housework; Dr. L. would say that I should do it all, but eh, screw that.
