Incorrect response to such a wife: "Yes dear." [wimpily spoken]

Correct response to such a wife: "You're right, we're not taking it
with us, I'm taking it with me. Either you're coming with me, or you
aren't. Make up your mind." [spoken very matter of factly and calmly,
then just let any arguments, shouting, screeching, etc. go in one ear
and out the other]
