It is cruel to begin with.It is a horrible form of punishment/way to escape a problem.

I am not sure.Maybe a day or so.I usually will end up opening the topic to get over with it.The tension and anxiety is torture and not worth the broken pride after wards.

Zingii,

Are you trying to condition your wife? When she does something right, you praise her. When she does something you don't want you keep quiet? She’s not a pet you know. :)

It is not healthy. Issues are best discussed. Even if you don't agree, you've conveyed your point across and you can come to some equitable solution. Don't focus on what happened, but how to proceed going forward. Looking for solutions is better than dwelling on the conflict that has already occurred.

You might be on to something here buddy. :o

are you saying by any chance that there are
ways to condition a grown person?

if so, how do you go about it?
