Well, obviously. ADHD screams out here, but let's not talk about it because it's not an excuse - an adult should know just how much he or she is capable of taking on with that disorder. Both DH and I have ADHD, as does our son, and we know exactly how far we can go without messing up. No selling cookies for us, on top of everything else :-)

Yes, many studies say it is genetic so look out for symptoms so you can approach things better and add more structure to tasks. Watch for it in your daughter as well.  People can overcome it by learning to focus, but there are limits to what they can focus on well.  multi-tasking is not one of them, plus if they spend all their focus energy on office work they may be useless at family or household stuff.

Sorry. Many adults were never diagnosed or have come up with coping mechanisms.  Survival of the fittest used to take care of this stuff, now you have to.  :([/quote]
