Is it me only or are there men out there with the same experience. I can handle my kids whining and tantrum, and i have very effective ways of handling them without resorting to "force", but boy i sure can't take my wife's nagging especially when it comes to handling the kids.

Proverbs 27:15 A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike; 16 to restrain her is to restrain the wind or to grasp oil in one's right hand.
Proverbs 21:9 It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.
You expect kids to whine and throw tantrums because they're kids. You hope that your wife as an adult would know better.
Ephesians 5:33 However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise), "that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land." Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6:1-4

Maybe it's because you can ignore and discipline your kids, but if you ignore or discipline your wife you know you'll be in serious trouble. Or, maybe you find the reasons why your wife nags is less important that what your kids might be throwing a fit about.

A wife nags generally when men don't do something like get off their lazy ***. So thats probably why you can't stand your wife to nag.

the answer is 2 fold
1.)you can tell your kids to shut up and usually they will but, if u say that to your wife she will talk twice as much
2.)and the kids unlike your wife are probably seldom right and men hate that

That's because you have control of the kids. Your wife can make your life a living hell when you tell her to shut the hell up.

Because you can always send the kids to their room.
Just try and do that with a wife.....

Because the kids can't help it.
