Don't Humor Him

JUST recently an AA wife asked me if I thought wives should humor and baby their AA husbands on the chance that, if they didn't, the bum might take a drink. My answer was no, and by that I meant an AA wife should regard the usual rules of give and take in marriage and should obviously treat the guy with normal Christian charity but she should not indulge in any unusual or excessive giving in because of fear that he might go back to drinking.
