Husbands Who Probably Shouldn’t Be Parents Any Time Soon

In every couple's life, there is a time when they start talking about whether or not they should start having children.

For some, that's a really exciting thought, but for others, they are faced with the reality that their husbands are barely more than children themselves. At least mentally, anyway.

Is It Really That Difficult?

Any time something like this happens, you have to wonder if they're really struggling, or if they think that if they do a bad enough job you'll never ask them to help again.

An Attempt Was Made

So, we have to give him brownie points for trying to do something nice. But if he had just taken a moment to inspect the wine bottle for even a moment, he would have seen it was a screw-top, not a cork.

Why Are They So Literal?

She texted her husband that she was on the way home and asked him to put the spaghetti on the stove. She probably meant in a boiling pot of water, but that was asking too much.

How, Though?

This is what happens when you get your husband to come out for the ladies' paint night. He goes ahead and makes it both better and worse somehow just by being there.
