So earlier this afternoon my wife and I had a pretty heated argument about the water bill. We have a 15 yr old son and a 16 yr old daughter that take 2-3 showers each a day. This month's bill was crazy high so with me being the patriarch of the family I naturally catch the most heat. I told her I would personally see to it our kids change their bathing habits, so while my wife was at her yoga class earlier I sat them down and we talked it out. I told them that for now on they have to take baths together and cut it down to one bath a day. A huge shouting match transpired but in the end they acquiesced after I threatened to take away their privileges. I forced them to get in the bath with each other and then shit hit the fan. When my wife got home she went to the bathroom and accidentally walked in on them. She was pissed. They told her I made them do it. She confronted me and asked me why I would do that and I told her that as a family it's time we focused on water conservation so our bills wouldn't be so high. She went to the bedroom and locked the door after I punched her so now I have to sleep on the couch because my 2 teenagers aren't willing to bathe with each other. When I was a kid I didn't stop taking showers with my dad until I turned 23. These kids have had it so easy compared to me. Was I wrong in this situation?
