A father’s message about not helping his wife has gone viral for all the right reasons. In an emotional write-up posted online, he perfectly explains the true meaning of partnership, and why in his view, the word “help” isn’t the correct one to use.

The anonymous man recalls a visit he had with a friend. As they were sitting, chatting, and catching up, he excused himself while cleaning up a few dishes. To which his friend looked at him as if the man “was going to build a space rocket,” he wrote. Still amazed, his friend said, “I’m glad you help your wife, I do not help because when I do, my wife does not praise me. Last week I washed the floor and no thanks.”
