Question: Is My Wife Wrong Or I'm just Wrong.......?
My Wife and I always have arguments all the time about how to discipline and rise our 3 year old son. My wife thinks our 3 year old is an angel. He is mostly a good child but my wife’s discipline policy is tell him this “Please don’t do this because and explains to him why is it Wrong.” And he says to her ok mommy sorry I won’t do it again. She never yells at him ever. When I yell at him he says I will tell mommy that you are not being nice daddy. Another thing is without discussing with me firsts she just bought him 2K for a special PC designed for pre-K kids which has 1000 software for his birthday. Like a week ago she spend $400 dollar on buying him mattress that will make him sleep better but I was against the idea but she was right he does sleep better. I mean she is right at times but she is not always right no one is. I’m just horrible person or my wife is just too much.

Answer:
What you have is a classic difference of parenting styles.
You need to sit down with her and resolve this NOW- because time will only make it worse.
Make time for that talk NOW.
I think your wife is right. The child is only 3 years old and you said yourself the kids is good most of the time and you said she was right about a lot things considering him so let her be a good mom which she is. You need to back off a little and let her do her part.
I think you both have very different parenting ideas. Certainly your child using 'I'll tell mum on you' isn't healthy and I think you and your wife need to talk calmly and find a balance. you don't want your children hating you! I think maybe your a little hard on them and your wife is too soft and spoiling them. Try to work through this together as a team rather than you being enemies. Good luck

Make her.
and another one will grow up to roam the stores while people stand back and say "I just don't understand what is wrong with the children nowadays"
i think as far a discipline goes, your wife has the correct angle here completely
yelling means you have lost control
yelling teaches him he can yell too
so, sorry, but you are wrong there
i think your wife should have consulted you before spending that amount of money
no matter what it was for
seems you two need to communicate instead of trying to out do each other with who is right and who is wrong
marriage is a partnership
not a competition
You have anger and control issues.
And you're a cheapskate.
She's right, you're right - now go tell her you're sorry.
You are just a horrible person.
