The Peacefulwife Blog started a discussion yesterday in her post, “We Can Put Our Husbands in a Lose-Lose Situation”. Her post came out of the following email she received from a Christian husband.

A friend told me the other day that their child was taking the SAT’s for the first time on Saturday.
