[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 430703, member: 84"] My husband could be the king of passive agressive.............except I'm the QUEEN! :rofl: I can go both ways, fight fire with fire, or tell it like it is. (best to keep em guessing) Depends on which suits the situation better. I had to have that moment with husband when easy child was about 11 or 12. Kids were still fairly young. He would either pawn it off on me to tell them to do something......or ask them, but not outright tell them to do anything. Years later it went to the opposite extreme and he started acting as if the kids were his personal slaves. So I had to call him out on it again. No. You don't order the legally blind kid to mow the yard, or trim the weeds, or hatchet down the small trees you've let overgrow in the yard......and give him an or else. Uh, don't think so. YOUR job, go do it. For the past four years we've had this confrontation. Now my battle is to get husband up off his fanny period. [/QUOTE]
