Charlotte and her husband have been married for six years and they have two little children. Her husband has a bad habit of leaving the washroom messy, plates untidy, and clothes scattered everywhere. She says this behaviour has been going on for more than five years and she has had enough. She has tried to talk to her husband about it so many times that he feels she nags too much and should just deal with it. He says he has always been this way and does not understand why it’s only just become a problem. If he was going to change, he says, he would have done so long ago. Both Charlotte and her husband are career people. She wants to get a house help, but he is objecting saying it is going to drain their finances and infringe on their privacy.
