Wife constantly criticizes her husband and daughter, but refuses to accept any feedback herself, leading to an ultimatum of counseling or divorce: ‘I just want to have a balanced, respectful relationship’

Family feedback sessions in this family's case look like a mix between a performance review and a stand-up roast. Every dinner arrives with commentary: the laundry isn't right, parenting falls short, hobbies are childish, and nothing happens without a running list of corrections. The household manager awards herself full immunity. Any return criticism sets off alarms that someone's attacking her character, and the conversation ends with dramatic sighs or accusations of marital sabotage.

The husband survives on apologies and low-impact hobbies, trying to squeeze in two hours of video games before sunrise to avoid complaints about wasted adulthood. His back is shot from past military service, but pain is written off as personal weakness. Mention his mental health or the impact of daily nitpicks, and a new prescription for patience is all he gets, delivered with a pointed reminder to take his meds.
