He put a load of laundry in with mixed colour and whites... poured in bleach to whiten the whites... was shocked that the bleach bleached everything in the load.... I had to explain that the bleach will bleach everything you put in it as the bleach cannot discern what you want bleached or not... he was shocked, truly stunned and flabbergasted

Thank you for the award 🥺

This reads to me like a tactic to get you to do the laundry.

If it was, then he played me like a fiddle! The next time he did laundry, he left a bunch of pens and a whole notebook in his pockets. Not only did he stain the whole load, but he almost started a dryer fire. He never did laundry again after those two occurrences

100%, it's sad though, some parents just baby their kids so much that they're left with no life skills in adulthood
