Josh and Rebecca, both Americans, have been in a relationship for more than two years. The two even brought an offspring into the world, who’s now a year and a half old. Josh, however, has no plans to marry Rebecca. Well, not until, she completes her “wife lessons.”
The couple, who’s expecting another addition to their family, went to Dr. Phil to solve their problem out, or even figure out what the problem is first. Josh said that Rebecca has to learn how to be domestic, docile, and just be an overall effective housewife before he even considers on marrying her.
Josh said, “Once Rebecca learns to be a better wife and mother, I think the sky’s the limit. I am the breadwinner. When I get home from work, I would love a meal. She’s got ample time to organize a feeding schedule for a family.”
Josh believes that Rebecca is “perfectly proportioned” and “the perfect size” for being a housewife; she has the capacity to pick up two sacks of potatoes, one on each arm, instead of just carrying one, like a normal human being.
Josh said, “I wanted Rebecca to have my babies because she is a very healthy gal. I wanted my daughter to look and be built by Rebecca. Physically, Rebecca is the perfect woman. Mentally, she is not.”
In a video clip taken inside their house, Josh told Rebecca with great conviction, “The house has got to be clean. It’s got to be deep-cleaned and it’s got to be cleaned by you.”
Josh had demanded a lot of things: keeping a grocery list, making sure that everything is clean and pure, and Rebecca’s “me time” would only happen when she’s going to get groceries.
Rebecca also has to notify Josh is she’s going to leave the house. She also doesn’t have a cash allowance.
Rebecca describes Josh as a “controlling narcissist.”
She said, “Josh makes me feel bad about myself because I don’t do things his way. Josh thinks I should have a cooking schedule, he tells me how to clean. He requires me to check in with him before leaving. I feel like a prisoner in my own home.”
Josh actually believes with all of his heart that he’s helping Rebecca grow and develop into a more fulfilled human being. He doesn’t see his actions as “controlling” in any sense at all.
Rebecca’s mom, Cindy, hates Josh. Cindy said that Josh wanted his mother-in-law to go to the store and get him aluminum foil. The purpose of which remained unknown.
