Yes! I remember a friend saying that when the family was driving home from the beach, sandy, tired and hungry, she kept hinting to him "Oh look there's that pizza chain we like. Look, that little burger place looks good. When they got home she was faced with fixing dinner and getting the little ones washed of the sand. She started banding pots and pans in the kitchen and her husband asked "what's wrong?" She said "you wouldn't stop for something to eat." He said "why didn't you ask me?" etc.

I saw that book recommended several times on cathinfo so I recently bought it. Currently reading through chapter 4 and while I think it has very useful advice I have noticed the secular and even feminist tendencies in it.

Take this image, in the top bullet point. The context on this was setting and respecting limits/boundaries. I was quite shocked to see this example, a wife should never suggest going on a vacation alone, it was basically a threat. No if the wife really needs a vacation a good discussion with the husband should take place and never a threat of going alone, the implications of which are terrible. Personally I found this point to be very disrespectful to the husband I am not sure why the author included it.

And some pages earlier it states, to quote;

"Similarly, many women today are also tired of giving. They want time off. Time to explore being themselves. Time to care about themselves first."

While this book was written many decades ago, as soon I see the expression or similar expressions to "explore being themselves" I get big alarms bells.

Still so far I think the book has been worth it, I just need to be careful due to the secular nature of the work.

…The husband in this case was a real doofus.
You don't just make your wife fix dinner while she and everyone else is tired, hungry, and dirty after a long day of exhausting fun. That's ridiculous.

I see this as potentially being one-sided and somewhat husband-bashing.

He did say, "why didn't you ask me?" because he can't read her mind?

She was banging pots and pans instead of communicating her needs.

I don't think she was forced to fix dinner. She could have order food for the family herself, left the kids with the husband and got some convenient food and came home, husband could fix the food while she relaxed, etc. I'm sure the husband would have done something if his wife communicated to him that she just couldn't make dinner because she was too exhausted.

In many cases it crosses the line into the Autism Spectrum.  A couple of 'spergs on CathInfo, one male, one female, come to mind.

Now, now, that's not nice.  I do not have Asperger's or Autism.  ... Well, actually, I may just be at the very beginning of the spectrum, now that I think about it.

Well, $500 of that is "cost sharing" Christian co-op health insurance for the 2 parents.
