[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hire a ADHD Coach or therapist.

A practical strategy would be to give him a domain, and give him time to own and perfect it. Communicate with him on ways that will support whatever internal system he that developed to remember. If it’s laundry, then it’s possible he will want color coded baskets to sort. He’ll need a designated day or timer set.

Be patient and trust the process. Get therapy for yourself to learn how to manage and better communicate.[/quote]

Jesus.  You people are totally crazy.  OP doesn’t need another baby to mother!!  She already has young helpless children! My 10 year old uses a timer for chores, if my DH had to do that and color coded baskets too we would be headed to “dead bedroom” purgatory.  Stop having such low standards and treating useless men like babies and adding on more to their wives’ ever growing list of responsibilities.  OP needs to very candidly tell her DH how he is dropping the ball, big time, and not pulling his weight in the family.  He can decide if he is going to grow up and either get help for what may or may not be ADHD or change his attitude if he is just lazy.  But he is a grown adult and a father of young children who needs to take responsibility for his behavior.  What is OP supposed to do, hold his hand in therapy and make him color coded flashcards??  Nope.  If he can’t change or get the help to change then OP I’m sorry but you will have to decide what kind of family life you are willing to accept.  Whatever you do do not have another child you already got one more than you expected.  Good luck.[/quote]
