Reminds me of a joke my jewish cousin told me: "Why do jewish husbands always
die before their wives do? Because they WAAAAAANNNT TO......"

It took my father many years to realize that my mothers' view of the world
was.... off. (we kids knew it all along) For years he could not understand why
our family was so stressful, he though it was because of his work, or him, us
kids or something. Now that we kids are all adults, I've noticed that mum has
become far more rational about things, and dad is far more assertive but less
angry, when mum has one of her reality divergences. (mum grew up going to
nun-run catholic schools from kintergarten up through college, which explains
much).
