[quote=Anonymous]Try to write things down, and get him to write things down as well. Makes lists and mark stuff on a calendar. Make sure that he is always involved in important family decisions and discussions. Don't let him "check out." It also sounds like a bit of a "chicken or the egg" situation where he forgets something and the you have an outburst and now he's upset and defensive and starts developing a sort of passive aggressive selective hearing, which just turns into a vicious cycle. This is a common dynamic. I know it's frustrating, but try to express your frustration in a non-threatening way where you just honestly and calmly state that you feel overwhelmed and are disappointed that he keeps overlooking things that are important.
