My DH used an apostrophe incorrectly. AIBU to divorce him?

It was actually twice in one shopping list. He is buying tea's and yoghurt's, apparently.

What if someone finds the list and posts it on here? I couldn't stand the shame :(

AIBU to just start divorce proceedings now, or just hit him on the head with a rolled up newspaper?

MN is such an eye opener about what some women are prepared to tolerate in relationships. I'm saddened

I think my DH avoids all instances that might use your\you're just in case he gets it wrong!

I think intensive re-training with a Taser® is worth trying. However, if that's not effective, well I'm sorry, but you are going to have to LTB. Sad

I think Lynne Truss would definitely advise you to LTB.

Here are some quotes from her on the subject...

Have you thought of calling Women's ( note correct use of apostrophe ) Aid?

Mine wrote "seperate" last week.

I'm so ashamed I considered NC-ing before posting this.

At least he knows what an apostrophe is! I'm pretty sure my DH was never taught about punctuation.

You need an intervention. I'm guessing 'he's a good dad' other than that, right?

Do not let yourself be brainwashed. LTB
