[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, default parent + scout parent here.  For the campout jacket, believe me - we've all been there.  All of us.  I hope you didn't lecture them.  Let them learn on their own.

I didn't read the whole thread but assuming your DH wants his kids to eat lunch, go to field trips, have a decent campout, and for home life to run smoothly, his solution is calendars and checklists.

Some parents use calendars and checklists at work and they think they can "take a break" from them at home.  They are wrong.

Some parents rely on other people at work to do some of their calendar and checklist work, and they think they don't need to learn how to do it at home.  They are wrong.

Some parents are ok with calendars and checklists, but not good enough to manage a DMV family and household in the year 2025.  Whatever they need to do - wake up earlier, watch less YouTube, get to the doctor to ask about ADHD, build new habits, they think that they don't need to do it.  They are wrong.[/quote]
