[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The OP and most responders are overlooking the very important point that this ADHD-sounding spouse probably married you partly for this exact reason, that you are a counterweight for their weakness in this area. Try not to go to extremes of this situation and recognize that this is something your spouse values about you; think about the other things you value besides this area of incompetence.[/quote] THIS. With DW in STEM, Aspergers is a real possibility OP, often attention issues and anxiety go with that. It is very likely that at least one of your kids has some similar traits. Help your wife and help that child and your family as a whole. What do you love/value about DW? About the child most similar to her? The grocery issue is SUCH an easy fix. A standing online order that is picked up or delivered saves a lot of time.[/quote]
