A queston just came to mind? Was he reared to believe men ruled the roost? My MIL never had a thought of her own until after my FIL died. If she had supper done, it sat until her DH decided to eat. Her son, my hubby, is the same way. NOW I tell him the chicken is on the stove and the taters are in the microwave (sort warming oven). She never one time watched a TV show she wanted to watch. Not that bad here. One of his sisters babies him when she's around. Doing everythign for him. NOT ME!~
