Housework Harassment

According to a survey, 70% of husbands who help with the housework have received complaints from their wives, such as, “Your way of doing it is different.” As a result, many husbands have lost their motivation to lend a hand. It seems that it would be better for wives to encourage their husbands to do the housework.
