What is the impact of constant nagging by a spouse on the health of the spouse?
Alberta, Canada
The following excerpt is from Krause v. Krause, 1974 CanLII 313 (AB QB):
In Atkins v. Atkins, [1942] 2 All E.R. 637 at 638, Henn Collins J. said: "One knows that dropping water wears the stone. Constant nagging will become completely intolerable, and though in the course of married life you may be able to point to no single instance which could possibly be described as, in common parlance, 'a row', yet nagging may be of such a kind, and so constant, that it endangers the health of the spouse on whom it is inflicted."
