I ask DH to read the posts made on this topic and he said Where did these husbands get the king of the castle mindset from? Got me to thinking. His mom died when he was very young and he had two older sisters, they ruled the roost in that house. I was raised by my grandmother who had no tolerance for grandpa or her five sons when they felt they needed to strut their stuff thinking they wore the pants in the house. I remember when my uncle was married a month and my grandmother told him she had better not ever hear him talk to his wife again like he was her boss. And then she told the wife she wasn't put on earth to cater to her son's every wish, so grow a pair. LOL.
