[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Learned helplessness, is a good term. [b]And it may have started with his mother. [/b] You have to be willing to let him do it his way if you want it done, not your way. Or division of labor. I have posted this before, but my DH had a friend who bragged to us both that if he waits until the last minute to do his portion of the work, his DW invariable did it because she wanted it done. Win win for him. This DH sounds like he gets out of a lot by being incompetent. And I don't doubt that some of these issues are harder than just cleaning a toilet, but he has to suck it up and be an adult and learn. Also, we have no idea how he is at work. Maybe he's one of those brilliant scientists who people put up with because he has a particular expertise. [/quote] Please stop with this BS. [/quote]
