[QUOTE="Blown 89, post: 16124862, member: 45161"] That part is absurd. Being treated like a child is uncalled for. It sounds like there is a dominance war going on and he's winning that battle by asserting himself. If you can avoid being an ass yourself or avoid telling him off it will go a long way. People like that feel like they win when you lose you cool as it reaffirms their belief that you're being irrational. The best thing to do is turn the tables. "What kind of child would cut Christmas lights? You're not accusing my wife of acting a child are you? Wouldn't you agree the more rational explanation is that a rodent ate through the line?" Take back that dominance by forcing him to admit the stupidity of his beliefs/behavior. Be prepared, it's not going to work if you have stupidity of your own to own up to. [/QUOTE]
