[ - ] At wit's end. As part of his chores we require our 7 year old DS to clear the table each night after dinner. DS is quite conflicted as DH (behind my back) insists that silverware be placed in the dishwasher with the handles down instead of the correct way I have instructed him with the handles up. This confusion is taking its toll as both DS and I are having difficulty sleeping because of this. Any thoughts how you have successfully dealt with this and had your dishwasher loaded correctly? Thank you so very much!! 29 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Step 1: Realize that there is no one "right way" to load the dishwasher and just assume that any way that gets all the plates and silverware into the dishwasher is appropriate. Step 2: Stop being so passive aggresive in your relationship with your husband and stop using your kid as ammo in your passive-aggressive tiffs. Grow up. [ Reply | More

I have to use my food processor for sauces, pesto, hummus, pie dough, peanut butter, nut powders for cookies, and to finely chop veggies for zucchini fritters and the like. It's also incredibly useful (but not as necessary) for pico de gallo, coarsely chopping brussel sprouts, guac, salmon burgers, meatballs, etc. I use it all the time, so it's worth it to me.

That the other woman/man isn't to blame, has nothing to do with the spouse. While some spouses are aware or are willfully blind, many many are not. Even if one knows their spouse is unhappy or that the marriage is going through a hard time, doesn't mean they can control how their spouse reacts to that. [ Reply | More

OP: Thanks. DW is a WOHM and our salaries are equal, but I work fewer hours, so I handle more of the daily care while she buys clothes, handles doctors, etc. She is a somewhat reckless spender, so I'm worried about finances, cost and process of moving to a bigger apartment, impact on relationship with older 2 DCs, and similar issues. We have 2 boys so I feel like she just wanted to try for a girl to play dress-up doll. [ Reply | More

Sounds like you don't respect your DW very much. That is sad. You said yes to a third child knowing everything about your wife's character and personality, so now you have to make the best of it... [ Reply | More

If finances are a concern, talk to her about finances. Now is not the time to assume she just wants to play dress up (which is very insulting, by the way). [ Reply | More

I've had nothing but positives experiences. That said, I know this is not true for everyone. Maybe switch to a traditional copper IUD and see if that helps. [ Reply | More

It's not harlem until about 123rd st on the Broadway side. At CPW, Harlem starts around 110th st. Good luck finding anything though. Columbia has scooped up most of it. [ Reply | More

The area around Columbia in the West 110s is Morningside Heights. It's been known as MH for as long as I can remember and my Dad was on faculty at Columbia in the 1960s and 70s. [ Reply | More

np: Yes, it is Morningside Heights, but in all honesty, since the 1960s many uninformed people referred to all of Manhattan north of 96th St with the general term "Harlem" except for maybe Washington Heights. The distinction between neighborhoods was less prevalent. For example, although the far east 80s have always been Yorkville, NO ONE used that term to refer to the area in the 1980s when I moved there. People just called the whole thing the Upper East Side.

Sometimes the crap posted on this side makes me laugh. Its Manhattan, there are people of color EVERYWHERE! There are some very good schools north of 96th street, and lovely neighborhoods too, but if you and your precious snowflakes want to stay south, imagining yourselves safe in a soap bubble of whiteness, please feel free.

Sorry - I meant the response to the responder with the black and hispanic men comments. In response to the OP - The neighborhood thing has been that way since as long as I've been in NYC, so 20+ years. Don't know about before then. Now its more official because of the Columbia expansion. [ Reply | More
