I know you're not having the greatest luck with him, though. :'( (hugs)
At this time he does very little and I can't rely on him. Last weekend we had an argument because I didn't put the pork chops into freezer bags and they went bad. I asked him why he didn't help me with this and he got mad because I didn't ask him to do it and expected him to "read his mind." Of course that's not true. I expected him to behave as an adult and think "maybe i should put these away" of his own initiative. But, in his mind I guess every little thing is my responsibility and if I don't directly ask him he won't help. He's also said he will never help me clean the kitchen again, because it just can't seem to get clean. So... basically... I do it or nothing. The only thing he does on his own is mow the yard because our neighbors report us to the city if we don't.

I just feel like a huge joke.
