Response to hunter’s weary wife draws criticism from readers.
, who was frustrated at having to host, feed and entertain her husband’s hunting buddy and his wife several times a year.Dear Abby: My daughter has a crazy rule if I want to see the baby
But you then made the comment that you can’t believe the friend’s wife doesn’t help with the cooking and entertaining, and how lazy and insensitive she must be. “Hosted Out” wrote that she doesn’t want to ruin the friendship. Wouldn’t fleeing to a hotel do that kind of damage? An honest, caring approach to the friends, stating that she has decided to cut back on the number of visitors and time hosting, should suffice.: Why does all the work fall to the wives? Perhaps next time, “Hosted Out” should plan only meals her husband has to barbecue.: Years ago, the business of entertaining mostly did fall on the shoulders of the womenfolk. Today, with so many women in the workplace, these responsibilities are usually shared.
