So I was definitely kidding about "training" a spouse. I'm not *THAT* mean.
It is, however, fun to joke around about men since we're all women here...

You've heard the phrase..."can't teach an old dog new tricks."...LOLOL Yes he is pretty much untrainable. He wasn't raised the way I was..to take care of what you have and take pride in it ....pride in a job well done. Around home, he just does it any old way to get it done, so he can do something he likes to do...tinker. Man..here I go again.

My son and I were talking about stereotypes yesterday so it seemed that clarifying the humor was important!

And yes, he has terrific taste when it comes to choosing a wife! If nothing else, he's got that going for him, right? Also, from what you've said, he seems like a really great dad!

There you go...you're 100% right Janet. His taste is impeccable.
I don't think you actually "train" a spouse, but I do think that we teach people how to love us and how to treat us. I think that's really what we mean when we say "train our husbands." One thing for sure, we can't change a person's basic nature. It's a waste of time and energy.
