Does your husband keep breaking things?  

This is funny. I have 3 kids and run a home daycare. If I dared to have any crystal or china it would either get broken immediately or my husband would use it to drain the oil out of his truck. I literally just gave up on having nice dishes for a while. I can't complain too much because even though he breaks many things, he can fix just about anything. He can take something(like a camera or radio) apart, fix it and have a handfull of extra parts left over. It is amazing.

Your husband sounds more like my mother. She has single-handedly smashed more sets of dishes and glasses in her life than anyone else I've ever known. I've broken a very few things in my life, but she always goes at everything she does at such a pace that I don't think she takes the time to make sure she has a good grip before she picks things up. When I was living at home I'd hear her mutter, "Oh sh*t", and I'd know she had broken yet again another dish.

haha that must be so annoying!
My boyfriend is pretty good, I think he's only broken a couple of things :)
We do have plastic cups, because he broke a few of our glasses though

My husband rarely breaks anything of mine. It is my kids that are doing in the things that I love. I have a hand blown perfume bottle from England that my mother gave me. My daughter picked it up one day and I immediately went to her to take it and put it somewhere higher. I got the glass from her, but she dropped the stopper which broke in half. I still have the bottle, but I take less pleasure from knowing that it is damaged.

Not my husband, but my 4 y/o son seems to break something at least once a week. That is why I have no shelves on the walls. I'm taking a huge chance just putting picture frames up and one of those has gotten broken too. Mostly my son breaks his own toys, which I then make him throw away if need be, but we are looking for some good plastic drinking glasses.
