What's a Catholic husband to do if his wife doesn't pray with him?
Two options that I see:
1. Beat her into submission.  I don't recommend this route.
2. Pray in a public place in the home at a set time every day, preferably with the children, and perhaps she will join.  Leave her alone otherwise.  We are to lead by example.

Just the Rosary... Both pray fifteen decades in the same language with the same prayers and mysteries at the same speed? Then what’s the problem... how about compromise and pray five alone, five together with him leading, five together with her leading, etc. Praying the Rosary with people who do not say it correctly in Latin or who do it too slowly can be distracting. Otherwise, why does it matter if she wants to say it alone?

The family that prays together, stays together.
Also, spouses praying together reminds them that there are three in their marriage.

Why doesn't she want to pray with you?
