Hi all. I see you haven't had a woman's point of view on here yet. First off, you say you are from farm stock and your wife is a city girl. Perhaps you were attempting to help us understand why your wife has the views she has about your tractors. It truly makes no difference of either person's background, as she knew who you were and what you were about before she married you. This is not a small problem, as previously stated, this is a HUGE problem that could escalate into a GIGANTIC catastrophe. It sounds to me like your wife is a selfish, self-absorbed, inconsiderate woman who only cares about her own feelings. That is the root of the problem. The sentimental value of BOTH these tractors is gigantic. Not to mention the satisfaction that you gained from resurecting the SC from near death. When she forced the sale of that tractor, she took that satisfaction and pride away from you. I am not a tractor nut by any means. My personal view is that equipment comes and goes. My husband has a tractor that I would NEVER dream of asking him to part with for any reason, regardless of condition. I understand what that tractor means to him. (It belonged to his father) You mentioned how she and your daughter didn't like the way they looked in the yard, but she didn't take into consideration how you and your son felt about them. (Not only did she force you to give up a family heirloom that you treasured, she also deprived your son of a precious family heirloom that I am sure he too would have treasured. The A after all, did belong to his grandpa.) More than anything else, her selfishness toards a child is the most chilling aspect of your whole ordeal. I am sorry, but from what I can gather she is truly cold and I think that you really should re-asess your relationship and probably her mental stability. That is unless, as someone earlier posted, you did something terrible to make her extremely angry and now she is seeking revenge. This is much deeper rooted than the sale of a few tractors with no family history. Those tractors meant a great deal to you or you wouldn't be upset about selling them. Look at it from this angle, children learn from their parents. There is the possibility that if you remain in this relationship, either one or both of the children could grow up to be as cold and self centered as she is acting. That is not a healthy way to live. I only wish you and your children the best. Thats more than I can say for your wife.
