Indeed it is. (I'm OP) |
| Bag of Cesar salad, big tortillas, chicken nuggets. Make a wrap. It’s one of my favorite easy meals. |
|
Frozen waffles and precooked microwave bacon or microwave instant oatmeal (breakfast for dinner).
Hot dogs and Easy Mac (microwave both) |
Honestly if they can’t be bothered to wash a pot then you need to let them just fend for themselves. |
| If they can't be bothered to wash a pan, they can live off of cereal for a few days and be grateful. |
This post makes me feel embarrassed for you. Why are you enabling this? It isn’t cute or funny, it’s just really pathetic (for your husband) and terrible parenting (for your son.) |

Paper plate in microwave. Take a flour tortilla, spread on some refried beans and sprinkle with cheese. microwave 30 seconds or until the cheese is melted., roll up and dunk in salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
This is much better in the frying pan but if they really don’t want to clean anything. Well. It’s one step up from a frozen burrito. |
Honey, if I could change it, I would. Please, come over and whip them into shape. Especially DH. He needs parenting boot camp. |
| Not to pile on - but I don’t get putting in the effort and planning meals for them if they are not even willing to wash a pot. Let them figure it out for themselves. |
|
Cereal, bananas, peanut butter, protein bars, apples, beef jerky, cheese cubes. Grapes. Packaged deli meat.
This would be the menu in my house until further notice if anyone pulled that learned helplessness sh!t. I think if it was a male attempting that crap, I'd skip any of the items that needed to be refrigerated and throw the rest in a box in the middle of the kitchen floor. What's wrong with you OP? |
I love McDonald’s chicken wraps, this is genius. Another super lazy meal, those salads in a bag. Just open the bag, squirt in the dressing and the toppings. Hold the bag closed and shake it until everything is evenly coated, then dump it out into a disposable bowl. Heat up canned chili (not too hot) and pour it into an individual bag of Fritos, sprinkle with cheese, welcome to fine dining at the rodeo. Put a hot dog in a bun and wrap it in a paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds. Not terrible. |
I love this post. What chili is everybody eating? There must be 1 everyone knows about |
| Hormel |
It's day 2, they ate TV dinners, asked what about real food. Honestly, I'm on strike. These 2 need to learn to do something in the kitchen. But I'm not willing to live among 10 crusty dirty pots they refuse to wash. This is my strike, not theirs!! |

Do you have to eat this, too, or is it just for them?
If it’s just for them, let them fend for themselves. Your husband is a big boy. He’ll figure it out. If it’s for you as well, you sit that man down and demand he wash a pot. And if not, you order some delicious take out FOR YOURSELF and relax. |
