Demand that if he insist on being a stay at home fa...uhh husband, then he must assume all the responsibilities that go with it. Make a list of all the daily chores from laundry, vacuuming, cooking and clean up and grocery shopping. You put your feet up when you get home from work and do not lift a finger to do anything if he has not.

Ps do not give him any spending money until he starts pulling his weight.

Go to the library and get the book Games People Play. Read about the game "Why don't you?...Yes but". Notice that your question was simply the opening move for that game. The other players will now give you advice or suggestions, every one of which you will reject, until there are no more suggestions. At this point, you have won the game. But you may be missing out on something in your life, something that has to do with your relationship with your husband.

You should think about this...

Leave him and the Xbox alone together for about a month. He's not working now, he won't work ever unless he has to! When he's gone, throw the Xbox in the trash. Get yourself a real man, honey. You deserve better!

Have a serious talk with your husband. Tell him that he needs to work in order to provide for his family and give back to the community. Help him find a job that he is enthusiastic about and is good at; if he finds something he enjoys doing, then he will want to work. Good luck!

take away his xbox. it seems like the only thing you have left to do. Or you can threaten to leave, but that's only as a last resort.

Simple - divorce.

Tell him to grow up and be a husband or you will leave him to his real spouse. He can have his controller give him head.

well you can always leave him and not get divorced maybe MAKE him get a job... he can find something to do.... manual labor doesn't require to much of book smarts.... that's a lazy excuse if he is using that one...
