[quote=Anonymous]Send him a calendar invite for a discussion about household responsibilities at an appointed time. Not in the evening. Get a babysitter if you have to. Prepare and practice until you can have the conversation in a calm and authoritative manner. Think about what you will say if he gets pissy or storms off. Offer him the choice between doing more or outsourcing more. Stop helping him. If he can't find a battery or a light bulb, assuming they are in an obvious place, keep your mouth shut and busy yourself with other things while he looks for them. This is the only way he will learn. [/quote]
