I homeschool my 8 year old and I've been teaching him ( while re learning myself ) german. the childrens books are an easy way to start and help to get you thinking in german, while the adult stuff has you constantly trying to transpose thought and sentence form.

Not absolutely sure where it originates, but the first time that I ever saw the reference was in the series of books about Rumpole of the Bailey. A series about a rumpled British Barrister and his somewhat pathetic existence. He referred to his wife as She Who Must Be Obeyed.

My uncertainty was really whether Mortimer (couldn't recall his name)invented the description or whether he just used it to his advantage.
