[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are not giving him adequate directions. You have done these things before (or something similar) and know the drill. He is trying and you need to share what you have learned so his success is enabled. [/quote]

After 20+ years, people should be expected to "know the drill." It doesn't have to be perfectly as I would do it and, even when our DC was a baby, I tried to let him figure things out. (He didn't want to bring extra diapers or a bottle? Well, that's going to suck for him in a few hours.) But sometimes, you have to do certain things, or remember certain things. And if I have to write it out, stick notes already, lead you by the nose, answer 10000000 questions about how to carry it out, it's just easier for me to do it. And yes, then I feel like I have another child and I've told him that.

This is a highly competent human in many parts of his life, including work where he is a supervisor. But the minute he walks through our door, he checks his brain at the threshold. [/quote]
