“we live in modern times”
“This husband’s issues go beyond that”
I can’t speak for Adore, but speaking for myself, and with many years experience of being a male, left alone for 10+ hours a day, hubby will get himself into mucho trouble. Modern times (or more speicficaly, modern technology) will see to that.
We need to be kept busy all day to stay out of trouble. Trust me, left to a male, housework would not be an all day job. It would be a hurdle to overcome, the faster the better, and leave the rest of the day for all sorts of bad things.
