[quote=Anonymous]I married a man child. We have been together for nearly 20 years and I have learned to live with it for the most part, but also was able to get him to improve. Essentially he came from a household where his mother did everything for her husband and kids so to him this was normal. Two things: do not enable and realize that his timeline for getting something done maybe different than yours. Like cutting the grass - it probably happens once a month instead of every 2 weeks. But he knows I won’t do it so he gets around to it eventually. Same with putting away laundry and rolling out the trash cans. I have basically designated certain chores as his and won’t touch them no matter what, and he knows it so will do it eventually. I try not to nag, it only makes things worse. If I do say something I try to do it in a humorous way and only one time. His mother always compliments how “helpful “ he is, and I just want to scream at her for not teaching him how to do anything for himself. It sucks, but I have made my bed so to speak.[/quote]
