[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My spouse never takes responsibility because he’s on the spectrum and always dropping the ball. So his go-to maladaptive trait is to never apologize, deny, deflect, walk off, or start a sideshow argument and attack the other person instead. Terrible role model for the kids of course. [/quote] When your spouse was growing up, what approach did his parents take?[/quote] The “sweep everything under the rug” approach. Passive aggressive. Talk in riddles. No one talked much. Still. Silent dinners. Mother was very passive, or became so over time. Mainly tutored the brother. Once teens, they all ignored the father. He stopped working early on and sat around the house. Signs up in every room of what to do when leaving the room (turn off lights or water, lock door, keys, etc.) I’m not going to bother asking because he makes up stuff or lies or guesses what you want to here or what the social norm should be. His parents had no approach, to anything. But they’re all on the spectrum and never got help for it. [/quote]
