      I hate to nag as well and sometimes I just go completely silent for a while and it is probably more effective for both my spouse and kid.


      It takes a lot of wisdom to know and be able to practise the power of

        I dislike being nagged at too and avoid at all costs. I will never give my mum an opportunity to nag at me.

        MEN do not like to be nagged...I don't like to nag bcos I don't want to be HIS mother. But there are certain things he does which irritates me.
        As for my kids, they have to continue to put up with me. Of course, I try not to nag but to remind them SWEETLY :rotflmao:

        Do whatever works for you as long as you can still love yourself with the nagging. Some people go into depression as they resist the image and yet gotta do it. When that happens, one needs to know how to pull the trigger and change the approach. We should not try to achieve something at the expense of our own sanity, that is a reminder for myself.

          I don’t nag at my husband. I only nag at my gal. My hubby do not like it when I don’t nag at him. He thinks I don’t care for him.

            I dun like to nag, tho I DO it sometimes cos there is a need.

            But funny thing is, I'm surrounded by naggy/talk-nonstop people, ESP male species.
            My dad, my DH, my son (all 小男人) nag/remind a lot maybe cos I tend to forget/bo-chap
            Mil, sister etc gets on my nerves cos just must talk & talk, gives me headache to hear their raised sharp voice.

            With sooooo much noise around me, sometimes I wanna Siam people for peace. Online is sooooo much quieter 😉

                My wife is beginning to nag and I have to remind her it is turning the kids off. I can see them rolling their eyes.


                I believe women mean well and actually do not realise they are nagging. But once someone tells them, they should stop to think whether their "style of talking" aka nagging is helpful for the family dynamics.

                Husbands, a better time to let your wife know is when you guys are alone without the kids. Like maybe when you two are taking a walk. Don’t make her get defensive when she is in the middle of nagging and having that "I am not done talking yet!" feeling.

                  I’ve seen what nagging can do to a relationship. My buddy’s wife was a constant nagger and it almost destroyed their marriage.

                    Used to nag at my DD for not keeping her own room neat and tidy. Then i realised that the more i nagged, the more i re-affirmed that she is untidy. Nagging makes me feel so old.


                    So i stopped. Then one evening, she could not locate her homework. Searched high and low and after 2 hours, she found it underneath a pile of other worksheets but by then, it was well past 12 midnight. I refrained from blurting out \"I told you so\" then. Well, my DD has learnt her lesson and now her room is much better now :evil:

                        I don't nag my dh. I aspire to be his 'mistress' & not 黄脸婆. And we all know 'mistress' does not nag :evil:


                        I nag my kids though. Look at their room, faint! Look at their desk, faint! Look inside their school bag, faint! But I tried to complete my nagging during office hours so dh won't get an earful
