> I put this real-life story in contrast, just to prove that it's not just about "Always listen to your wife, she is always reasonable". For the trivial stuff like putting away your shoes or your socks, fine. But some decisions make a career and determine the future success of your offspring.

The advice is good but is lacking. It should have been

"Always listen to your wife, she is always reasonable. But in the end, you have to make the decision yourself and take responsibility for it".

I remember reading about this in David Deida's The Way of the Superior Man.
