An Italian woman is facing six years’ jail for allegedly not cooking and cleaning the family home enough.
Yes, an appalled Italian husband has taken his wife to court over her “poor management of household chores”.
Hang on. What?
The 40-year-old woman from Lazio in south-central Italy has been charged with ‘mistreatment of the family’, Italian news site The Local reports.
Watch some of the Mamamia team reveal the moment they knew it was time for a divorce. Fortunately, none are “when my husband took me to court for not doing the dishes” (post continues after video).
Court documents state her 47-year-old husband has been “insulted” for more than two years by his wife’s negligence of the household duties.

There's no reasonable "yes but" to this. It's simply ridiculous to take this complaint to court.
There is onbviously more to it. Maybe the kids are suffering. Maybe it's not the bloke this time
Maybe she's clinically depressed
'This time'? Why, what are you saying the bloke did last time?
Maybe Chris Gayle was clinically depressed.
Guess it's up to the court to hear both sides. Not a crime to be a worthless couch potato, but if there are kids involved for instance and they are living in squalor with poor nourishment and she does nothing whilst he is working to pay the bills, maybe she does need a wake up call.
