Rejecting food when there’s an issue:
Mr husband, you gave your wife money
for food and after it was prepared you refused to eat because you are angry.
It’s one of the greatest signs of immaturity, it’s time to grow up! You should
not even abandon your home for any reason. You could go somewhere when angry
but ensure that you don’t allow it to linger unnecessarily because that is
enough for the devil to build on even though some women can be really
troublesome.
Telling your wife severally that you
are the head:
May I let you know that even when your
wife disobeys/ disrespect you she still knows that you are the head. You need
not shout or scream it daily. Or do we need to get you a slot on CNN? It’s
important for you to know when and how to be firm and put your feet down over
issues, however don’t become a nagging husband just to prove that you are the
head.
Issuing threats:
Beating, verbally abusing your wife,
issuing threats of divorce or bragging about marrying another wife does not
make you a man. An EMPTY barrel makes the loudest noise. Your strength is in
your ability to tame your tongue and control your fist. When she is acting her
“childish woman” part, play the “matured man.”
Reporting your wife to friends and
family:
When your wife offends you, correct and
talk things through. You don’t have to tell everyone about her mistakes, that
will paint her black and sell her cheap such that you will not be able to
redeem her back.
Keeping malice:
Is it not funny to know that some men
keep malice? Some of them even nag, criticise, abuse and call their wives names
in public. It may make you look like a “big boy” who’s in control but
you are not going to gain anything good from it, your home will only be a den
of insults and confrontations.

Not helping with house chores:
I must say here that it is the sole
responsibility of a woman to tend and manage a home when she chooses to be a
full time house wife.
However, it’s not a bad thing if a man
lends a helping hand when necessary. Watching football with newspaper in your
hand every evening, not caring how stressful the house chores are will only
increase the pressure on your wife and if you truly care you’ll help, just
checking on her while busy could encourage and sooth her, this also makes you a
good example to the kids especially the boys. Some men don’t even say
“thank You” to their wives after eating, all they do is compare her
with other women. It’s a shame that after having 3-4 kids some men cannot
change a simple diaper or prepare cereal meals; a big shame.
