Okay... so, I liked the book. There were a few, quite a few places where I said "ouch". I know I can do better, and yes, it helped me see that. There WERE some places where I had to check the copy right date. The practicality of a few (very few, mind you) points had me thinking I was going to ask the neighbors to check in on "Wally and the Beaver" while I took June out of the house for a few hours. "Yes, you work 8+ hours a day five days a week but she (especially as a young mom and/or working mother works 24/7 so don't expect her to do it all." Don't assume that she does. Some of the statements were just a little odd... one statement, he actually spoke to the women. "Please forgive us, ladies. Sometimes we just can't resist, even if the result is more like stepping on something in the barnyard than clearing up the problem." That was a statement in point #59 "Helping with the vacuuming isn't a substitute for romance (for most women!)". There are a few like that, but there are MANY that I can see would help me navigate through this life. Now I am intrigued as to see what his wife, Lisa Jacobson wrote in the book my wife is reading...
