The Subjects Of Most Common Household Arguments

A study out of the UK found that the average household has 21 trivial fights each week.

The research found each dispute only lasts around four and a half minutes, adding up to just 15-minutes each day!

Many arguments happen in the bathroom with family members frustrated at others not changing the TP roll.

When the heat should be turned on, someone leaving the dishes ‘to soak’ rather than washing them up and leaving wet towels on the floor is also featured in the top 20 list.
