NTA for expecting husband to address his disorganization, but ADHD changes things

NTA. Don’t be his mom. Set a good example for kids

“NTA You’re not his parent. He needs to learn to manage his own schedule. Online calendars and popup reminders, etc make it incredibly easy to keep track of what’s going on in your life. I have the same issues as your husband and I’ve managed to figure it out. Well, mostly . He needs to have some sort of routine where he reviews his calendar every morning, or whatever works for him.
