[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After multiple failed attempts trying to reach my son to clean after himself, cook and do laundry I now use a different approach. He’s studying doing well in his field. He’s ordering his laundry twice a month pick up/drop off from Poplin directly to his college dorm. A cleaning lady comes once a month to make up his unit and place clothing scattered on the floor back in the wardrobe. He only eats outside dorm. My mother-son relationship has improved tremendously after I switched to outsourcing and stopped nagging him. He can also see how much in real terms these services cost and can plan his future earnings around it. I guess if a man is making decent income and has a working wife nobody should be shouldering housekeeping that can be outsourced. I know families that have house assistant to help navigate through this. Spouses need to find workable solutions and perhaps accept that some socks will always be on the floor…. My son is smart talented and hard working but on ASD spectrum so he can’t learn these skills [/quote] He only knows what he knows. So will always need a Mommy or Secretary figure to adapt, learn and tell him what to do. That’s the opposite of raising children- who have different needs every few weeks or every hour. There is no formula (crafted by Mom) to follow come hell or high water for adult life. If he does choose to marry or have kids, make sure his life partners knows this all. Plus she better be type A and independent because telling him everyone’s needs (and hers), all the time is exhausting and lonely. Also, if something happens to her, the whole house of cards goes down. Hard. [/quote]
