Dear Stephen Shirley, my husband 11 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 2: of twenty two years, has made a lot of changes 12 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 2: in the last six months. He's been in the military 13 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: since I met him, and he retired last year, but 14 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 2: he still hangs out with his co workers. He has 15 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 2: always cursed like a sailor because he was a sailor 16 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: when he was younger. When we had our first child, 17 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: I asked him to watch what he said around our 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: daughter after he slacked up with using profanity, and he 19 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: did slack up with using profanity. Now that he's retired, 20 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: I think he's frustrated and bored because he started using strong, 21 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 2: four letter words and he said the kids are old 22 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: enough to understand We have a seventeen year old and 23 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 2: a fifteen year old, and he curses at them like 24 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 2: they are his age. Not only do I have to 25 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: put up with his bad language, he put a bar 26 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: in the basement and bought all brands of alcohol, and 27 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 2: his former co workers pop up at our house and 28 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: they go downstairs and drink up all of my husband's liquor. 29 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: He gets very drunk, and usually he falls asleep in 30 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 2: the basement and I have to usher his friends out. 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: Money is not an issue with all of the alcohol, 32 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: but I get tired of his buddies drinking up his 33 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: premium liquor and they don't give him one cent to 34 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: buy more. I asked my husband if he's going through 35 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: something or if this is a midlife crisis, and he 36 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: told me that he's fine, but ready to let his 37 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: hair down a little because he's not working anymore. I 38 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: did not want to spend my retirement with a drunk, 39 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: foul mouth man. 40 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: He's Here's the worst part. The last time we were 41 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: being intimate, he was drunk and he called me a 42 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: dirty name, and he kept cursing so loudly. I was 43 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: afraid our kids would hear it. How can I stop 44 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: him from being so crude. I need the drinking and 45 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: cussing to stop. Wow, well it doesn't look like it's 46 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: gonna stop for a while anyway. It sounds like your 47 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: husband needs a seriously different kind of hobby than, you know, 48 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: just being downstairs drinking with his friends. But he did 49 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: tell you he wanted to let his hair down a 50 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: little bit. Maybe this is not going to last forever, 51 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: but I see you want to cut it off now, 52 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: cut it off at the past before it gets any worse. 53 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: He did say, like I said, he wanted to let 54 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: his hair down a little because he's not working anymore. 55 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: And that's you know, you said it too. He's bored 56 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: and frustrated. But he also has to realize that this 57 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: is your house too. When you guys do have kids, 58 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: he needs to be mindful and respectful of his influence 59 00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: on them. He was able to curb his cursing when 60 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: your daughter was little, so you know he can change 61 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: if he wants to. I say, you tell him you 62 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: need a break from all the company and the drinking 63 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: and the cursing, because it's getting out of control and 64 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: he's drinking way too much, maybe turning into an alcoholic 65 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, let him know he's setting a horrible example 66 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: for the kids. He needs to find out something, find 67 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: something else to do. Tell him you don't want drunk sex. 68 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: You don't want that, and you don't want his old 69 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: coworkers just popping up at the house unannounced. Now are 70 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: you mad at that? Or are you mad at the 71 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: fact that they're drinking of all your husband's good liquor, 72 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: Because those are kind of two different issues. If they come, 73 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: you don't have to answer the door, especially if they 74 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: come unannounced, stop letting them in. If they do, just 75 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: don't answer the door. And if you do let them in, 76 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: hide the liquor. Hide the liquor. All right, that's what 77 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: you have to do, Steve. 78 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: Well, this drinking and cussing has to stop. I'm gonna 79 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 3: just be upfront with you before we start. Just letter 80 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: I might can help you with the drinking. 81 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 4: What are you saying? 82 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 3: I don't want to be hypocritical. I think I can 83 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 3: possibly help you with this cussing. Cuss I know where 84 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 3: it comes from. Anyway, Your husband twenty two, that made 85 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 3: a lot of changes in the last six months, been 86 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 3: in the military since you met him. He retired last week, 87 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: but he still hangs around with his coworkers. 88 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 4: Well, he missed his friends. Uh, they've they had relationships. 89 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 3: You know, a lot of people once they stopped working, 90 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 3: you know, they missed the camaraderie at work, They missed 91 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 3: the relationships down at the job. 92 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 4: They just as dudes, and he missed them, all right. 93 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: So he's always cussed like a sailor, and he said 94 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,799 Speaker 3: that's because he was. But marines cuss, army people cussed, 95 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 3: post office workers, cuss, pastors cuss. Media's Cus radio show 96 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 3: hosts cuss. Shu cuss. She acts like she don't, but 97 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 3: she probably do all that old mess right there. Who 98 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 3: the hell don't cuss anyway, anyway, let's just move on. 99 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 3: I can tell you for show, call him for real cuss. 100 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: So now we had our first child, I ask him 101 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 3: to watch what he said around her daughter, and he 102 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 3: slacked up. Well, now he's retired and he's frustrating the 103 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: board because he'd just started using folk letter words again what. 104 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 4: He slacked up when the baby was young. 105 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: But see now you say, we have a seventeen year 106 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 3: old and a fifteen year old and he cusses at 107 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 3: them like they his age. They probably heard these words before, ma'am. 108 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 3: Now if letting, if he's not cursing at his daughter, 109 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 3: that's a different thing. 110 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 4: You know. 111 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 3: Cussing at your little girls is wrong if you a man, 112 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 3: I just think it's wrong. I do not only do 113 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 3: I have to put up his bag language. He put 114 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 3: a bar in the basement. He bought all brands I 115 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 3: call his fomer.

Yeah, 120 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: that he falls asleep and they steal down there, that's 121 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 3: a problem. 122 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: I have a solution for that though. When we come back. 123 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 3: I asked my husband if he's going through something in 124 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: midlife christ He said, he fine, He just ready to 125 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: let his head down a little bit because he ain't 126 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: working no more. 127 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 4: Well, I got that, But we gotta. 128 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 3: Do something because y'all can't be that old, because the 129 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 3: kids ain't but seventeen and fifteen.

Today's Strawberry letter subjects the drinking and 136 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: the cussing has to stop. We'll get back into it 137 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: right after this. You're listening Steve Hardy Morning Show. All right, 138 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject 139 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: this drinking cussing has to stop. 140 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 3: Well, here's a deal. Been married twenty two years, he's 141 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: always cussed. He then he didn't put a bar in 142 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: the basement. He miss his friends, those relationships. He then 143 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 3: started back to cussing again. And now the kids are 144 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 3: seventeen and fifteen, and you say he cussing at them 145 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 3: like they're his age. They probably heard all these words before. 146 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 3: Like I said before, as long as he's not cursing 147 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,119 Speaker 3: at the daughter that way, I don't think that's cool 148 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 3: at all, because it sends a bad example to a 149 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: young lady. That is okay for a man to talk 150 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 3: to her that way, and it's not. And as fathers, 151 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 3: we have to be very very conscious the example that 152 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: we put in front of our daughters and our sons. 153 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 4: But you really don't. 154 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 3: Want a daughter to think that this is acceptable coming 155 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 3: from a person who's supposed to love her. That's an 156 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 3: unacceptable dog And that's what you got to get a 157 00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 3: grip on that right there. 158 00:07:59,040 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 4: Now. 159 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 3: He respected her when she was young, but now that 160 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: they're older, I got that they old enough that they've 161 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 3: heard this. But you can't do that to your daughter. Man, 162 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, it's a dangerous slope. You're creating something 163 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 3: in her that she don't need to be. She needs 164 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 3: to always look at her father as a protector, somebody 165 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,559 Speaker 3: she can go to and want to, you know, hold 166 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 3: her father in high esteem. He could be losing that, 167 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: So point that out to him. 168 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 4: Tell him. 169 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 3: I said that that's cool. Steve said, you shouldn't do 170 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 3: it around your daughter, and you shouldn't. And most men 171 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: had agree with me and all. And we have daughters 172 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 3: on this show. Me and Tommy got daughters. And that 173 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 3: ain't how we talk, all right. Now, he to put 174 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 3: his body downstairs, and his workers pop over at the 175 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: house and they go downstairs, they drink up all your 176 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 3: husband's liquor. He get drunk, fall asleep, and then you 177 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 3: gotta USh his friends out. Money ain't an issue with 178 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 3: all alcohol, but I get tired his buddy drinking up 179 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 3: his premium looking in and they don't give him one 180 00:08:58,640 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 3: cent to buy more. 181 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 4: So, now here's the deal with that. 182 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 3: I think the solution is he get a knight with 183 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: his buddies downstairs. Pick the knight that is the night 184 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 3: for drinking, and then that makes it once a week 185 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 3: or once every two weeks, whatever y'all decide. But he 186 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 3: gets a knight to go down with his ball with 187 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: his buddies. They can't just pop up. I don't know 188 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 3: what y'all running over there. And this ain't camp, and 189 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 3: y'all ain't little kids coming over to me like, Hey, 190 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 3: we want to play video games and ride your bike. 191 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 4: That ain't what this is. 192 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: You got a family dog, and you can't have people 193 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 3: just popping up at your house. That's unacceptable because now 194 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 3: you're not only disrespecting your daughter, you're disrespecting your wife. 195 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 4: So now you ask him if you're going through something. 196 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 3: He said he ready to be tie now and he 197 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: won't let his hair down a little. I've been told 198 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 3: that you can retire from the military's earlier's thirty eight, 199 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 3: but you've been with him twenty two years, so he 200 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 3: must have been in the military for two years. 201 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 4: So let's say y'all got married at. 202 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 3: Twenty Let's say twenty twenty two, because the kids is 203 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 3: fifteen and seventeen. So let's say he forty forty four 204 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 3: years old. Okay, dog, so you ain't finna do nothing 205 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 3: except drink because you done retire. You got to do 206 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: something else. Dog, you may live another forty fifty years. 207 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 3: What this can't be it You need to get some hobbies. 208 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 3: I didn't want to spend my retirement with a drunk 209 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: firemouth man. Here's the worst part. Last time we were 210 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 3: being enterming. He was drunk and he called me a 211 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: dirty name, and he kept cussing so loudly. I was 212 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 3: afraid our kids was here. Well, they heard it. 213 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 4: They heard it. 214 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: He loud. 215 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: You know, drunk people don't ever realize how loud they talk. 216 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: I don't know what happened, but I think drinking blocks 217 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 3: your hearing. That is for damn sure or symptom of 218 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 3: being drunk. I think it blocks your hearing.
