Ask Amy: First cancer hits, then heartbreak follows
Dear Amy: I’m curious why the “Anxious Wife” whose husband didn’t do enough housework neglected to state the working (outside the home) status of her and/or her husband.
Surely, if one of them is the major breadwinner, then the stay-at-home partner would be expected to perform more of the chores?
— Need Clarification
Dear Need: “Anxious Wife” said she “needed help” with some tasks, and (regardless of their work status) I took her word for it.
