Download The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands Audiobook

" I often felt like she was yelling at me. "

" Not totally sure what to rate this book. I DID enjoy it, and thought she made a lot of really awesome points. In particular, I thought that she hit the nail on the head when she talked about trying to put your husband first, put yourself in his shoes, not complain about how hard your day is the second he walks through the door, etc. On the other hand, I felt she maybe took it a little too far. There are TWO people in a marriage, and I think it's up to both of them to contribute to the well-being of the marriage, not solely the wife. Also, by the end, I felt like she was SO redundant. So, overall, some good points, but it was sort of a drag to finish it all. "

" I am three quarters of the way through this book and I love it. I think this is a wonderful book that has inspired me to be a better wife and a better person. "

" I liked this book because I can appreciate when someone tells it like it is. I agree with a good 95% of what the author said in the book, especially about what the feminist movement has done to women in actuality. The movement was supposed to give us numerous options in life, but now the pendulum has swung so far the other way that we are basically expected to be men...ha, and men to be women, go figure. The good thing about this book is its ability to make you puff up and have some pride in your gender for all its unique-ness, not its unisexness. I like that she calls women out about their be- Yes, we have be...its not just men. We have a tendency to want to blame EVERYBODY else for our misery, this book will make you want to change your thoughts and ways...before those ways head you into divorce. If you read this book with an open mind and heart, you will get what the author is trying to do for you, and you will benefit. Please give it a try. "

" A useful, abrasive perspective on women's roles and opportunities. Take it with a grain of salt. The advice is not one size fits all, but could be used for self evaluation on some level. "

" I didn't like this book. A) it didn't apply to me (very different kind of woman she is writing about) and B) she only wrote about one kind of woman!!! Why did I read it? I don't know. Why do people stop and look at a car crash? "

" Read this a few times. Gives great advice. "

" Finally a professional who says there is something to staying together 'for the kids'...even for the married couple! Marriage can be rewarding when it's not all about "me." Vindicating, yet motivational. "

" True principles that I agree with; just didn't like being hit over the head with them. "

" This book had such a unique perspective on how to be happy in a marriage. I appreciated Dr. Laura's candor, and I am going to try to actually implement some of the changes I think I could make in order to be a better wife. "

" Take this book with a grain of salt, but for the most part, I really enjoyed it and agreed with it! "

" I boought this book as a gift for a friend and read it first. I thought she had some really interesting ideas. "

" Be prepared to hear it the hard way if you read this book, and make no mistake- i don't agree with everything in this but I do agree with 99% of it, and I think if you are open to a happy marraige, you should read this book. "

" Good book! Gives me some things to work on. :) "

" I would recommend this book to any girl in a relationship as long as she takes it with a grain of salt. Dr. Laura offers the extreme cases, but some good and helpful advice as well. "

" I'm not a huge fan of the way Dr. Laura writes...it's very casual. But I do like how she includes stories from people who call into her radio show. "

" This book had a lot of interesting ideas that I plan to impliment. She did spend quite a bit of time bashing women though. I don't really think that was needful. "

" FABULOUS!!! If you want to understand your husband and figure out how a guy is really thinking, this book is awesome. "

" I think this is a book that you either like or hate. I liked the message to stop nagging your husband. "

" Frankly, I don't think my husband would want me to follow every rule in this book. "

" She is annoyingly in-your-face about it, but she knows what men need and isn't afraid to harangue us women to stop nagging, start loving, and let our men be MEN, or prepare to be cheated on, lol! "

" Funny book, she needs to write one for the husbands now! "

" Most of it I felt I've already learned. It's real basic in how to treat your husband kindly. I just got bored. Some of it a lot of women do need to read though and I did learn from reading this. "

" A lot of what she talks about seems like common sense to me but I realize that common sense isn't so common. It is good to read over and over throughout life to remind and re-examine ourselves as our roles as women and wives. "

" I liked the idea of this book, although I quickly tired of the endless examples. I think Dr. Laura has some very valid points, and that if the book were re-written with her points clearly expressed and limited examples - then it would be much improved. Could be a terrific 50 page book. "

" I didn't want to like it, but I thought it had some good points. "

" Just what you'd expect from Schlessinger. Some good points and suggestions. Some parts made me want to punch her. Not a good read if you're a feminist! "

" There was some good information here, but mostly I was bored. I felt she tried to make it more exciting with intense examples from her radio show. Some good info, but not the best read. "

" This is like rewinding 50 years of progress. Dr. Laura is a moron. "

" I highly recommend for all married ladies!! "

" If this book is about what wives SHOULD be like then I NEVER want to get married - it sounds AWFUL!!! "

" This book is awesome! Dr. Laura totally tells you how it is and how to make marriage amazing! If you are happily married, unhappily married, soon to be married, or even thinking about marriage, READ THIS BOOK! "

" Give him "guy time", let him act like a man, don't whine to him, use sex for yourself too. He has feelings and emotions. Tell him you're proud of him and how hard working he is and he'll slay dragons for you. "
