That’s how I quickly weaned my husband off his favorite phrase, “And my mom does this!”

– Why didn’t you put any raw potatoes in the cutlets? My mother always puts potatoes, and that’s why she gets such delicious cutlets!
– Why don’t you iron the sheets? But my mother always does!
– And my mom doesn’t like your girlfriend very much at all. She dresses so horribly and wears such bright colors. You should not communicate with her!

That’s what my husband used to say to me all the time. Of course, with time I got tired of listening to all this. And then I decided to take action: I decided to beat the enemy with his own weapon!

– Honey, I got it all! Now we’re going to live differently, in a new way! Since your mother knows best how we should live, then now we will live only by her rules! – I said to my husband and hugged him tenderly.
– Now I’m going to iron the sheets, and you take out the carpet and give it a good knocking!
– Why? Because I just vacuumed it an hour ago! – My husband asked me in surprise.
– Why? Your mom thinks that the vacuum cleaner can not remove all the dust from the carpet! Come on, don’t be lazy! We have to take your mom’s advice! That’s what she always does!

– Honey, would you put on your underpants, please? It’s freezing outside! So what if it’s warm at work? You can’t mate! But it’s cold outside! This way you won’t freeze when you’re waiting for the streetcar! Your mother told you to wear them. She didn’t buy them for nothing.
– I told your mom you were going winter fishing this weekend! Your mother absolutely forbade me to let you go! So hide your fishing rods! You’re not going anywhere! We’re not going to upset your mother. After all, it could raise her blood pressure!
– Your mother and I have talked it over, and we’ve decided it’s time for you and me to be parents. Your mother really wants to become a grandmother!

– Wait a minute. This is such an important question. Why didn’t you consult with me?
– Why didn’t you? If that’s what your mother wants, then that’s what we’ll do. After all, your mother knows better how to do it! – Sweetly smiling, I told my husband.

He looked at me very carefully, thoughtful, and then said:
– I do not understand, is it so often said that my mother is always right?
– Yes, honey! I’ve been listening to this for a year now. And you’re sick of it after two weeks!

My husband laughed and said:
– So you should have told me right away!
– So I said! And more than once! But you didn’t hear me!
– I understood everything! We’re going to live our lives differently from now on. We will listen to my mother’s advice as little as possible! – my husband promised me.
– Whatever you say, honey! – I answered him with a smile…
