women are IMO smarter then men and know how to out-talk, out-wit and manipulate with their emotions and other things so the Men often just cave in to save the family or have a little peace of mind. I see it in my church constantly. The men are whipped - i feel for them

I point to:
1. Abigail who acted to save her household;
2. The wife of Moses who acted when God was on His way to kill Moses;
3. The mother of the youngest king who must have raised him single handidly to seek God since his father was EVIL;
4. The mother and grandmother of Timothy who taught him to love God and truth;
5. Furthermore; we have some wonderful ministers today that were brought up to love God by their mother not their father's doing.
And the list could continue to go on...
This is not to say that dad is expendable. FAR FROM IT. Society as a whole would benefit tremendously if Dads took their rightful places.
But it is important for wives and mothers to know that there are some places they can't follow their husbands. And they better know that and not think there is some magical umbrella of protection in doing what their husbands want.

Absolutely!
