I mean, this looks pretty similar to the dishwasher setup, so idk why you’re surprised / appalled 😊

In all seriousness though, I wouldn’t place the pizza at the bottom either. It’s the most likely to be grabbed next and finished first.

“efficientlyly”

Yeah, makes sense your daughter isn’t able to do basic things, her parents seem like idiots too.

Holy shit this thread is full of holier than thou judgy comments!

I have always been the strict one, no phones at the table, no devices in the room. I taught my daughter to cook, the correct way to clean. I taught her manners.

I learned patience and fortitude as I made her do these things over and over again until they were done right, instead of doing them myself.

My daughter has AuDHD, something that can be a reason but that we never let be an excuse. Part of that disability is struggling with executive function, and you know what? More often than not, she does this same shit. Yes, even at 20 years old.

There are times I needed support and wanted to post similar things somewhere just so someone else could bear witness to how fucking hard it is to raise a kid like that right.

When she was 12 I watched her stand at the sink for I shit you not 6 fucking hours doing the dishes for a family of 3. We watched her and took little notes. Here is a one hour excerpt:

1810 - playing with foam and masher

1812 - playing with masher + silicone mixer (red), then just the foam and silicone mixer

1813 - rubs silicone mixer on spatula, then puts the red mixer in the clean. Lightly rubs once on each side of the spatula and calls it cleaned.

1814 - playing with sponge. Holding it upright and squeezing to so runs down arm. Then gets a plate to the surface, and uses sponge to drip water + foam over plate (no direct contact).

1815 - refills sponge, and squeezes over arm again. Then gives 2 circles over the plate in the clean area, and calls it done. Goes back to playing with sponge, picking up foam with it and putting it on another dish.

1816 - sponges hand. Then cleans 1 glass. Picks up 2nd glass, but does a water cycle in it. No sponge action.

1817 - after doing nothing for 30 seconds, sponge stuffed in glass then twisted about gingerly.

1818 - glass with inside sponge twisted put in cleaning part of sink, sponge drained over it. Outside of glass not cleaned. Stands there still for next half minute

1819 - stands there still for first half of minute, gets whisk and whisks about. Drops whisk back in water then walks into lounge room

1820 - walks around lounge room, then plays with sponge

1821 - plays with sponge

1821 - still playing with sponge

1822 - rustles some cutlery after being reminded of being watched, then plays with water

??? - wonders off to get hair tie to put in pony tail. Turned on fan.

1829 - 4 things rinsed. Then looking outside. Then playing with pasta strainer

1830 fills pasta strainer, then lifts to see water fall through it. Holds in front of fan towards face. 5 swipes of the sponge, then plays with fan.

1831 - mentions not getting dessert. After being reminded of being watched, starts to sponge correctly.

1832 - rinses 4 items. Doesn’t rinse inside cat bowl.

1833 - handles the pot for a while before touching sponge. Now using pot scraper.

1837 - puts cutlery on clean side even though didn’t clean with sponge. then uses “pot sponge” on cutlery, not regular sponge.

1839 - scoops up foam with large pot spoon, then drops it in.

1841 - now cleans up dinner mess left on table. Out of order on procedure. 1842 - uses sharp side of knife to scrape off cutting board

1843 - confused by used skewers. Puts it down when asked to work it out.

1855 - puts away cleaned knife, then takes another out to look at

1857 - looking intently at finger for a long time.

1859 - using green pot scrubber on plastic containers scratching them

This went on for I am not exaggerating 6 hours. After that I resolved to never judge a parent for not being able to teach their kid something like washing dishes, because for every A type that just fucking does things there is a B type that drives you insane. Most parents give up and just do it themselves.

Now that she’s 20 she is doing better, we estimate she is 2-3 years behind her peers when it comes to this sort of maturity and executive functioning. She doesn’t take hours to do something, but may take 16 reminders.

Anyway OP, keep fighting the good fight. We all do our best and sometimes a kid just … Refuses to learn.

I am not sure what bad taste in pizza has to do with dishwashers, but if my kids bought dominoes I would be upset too.

The only thing that bothers me is leaving the pizza in a box like that. It should be put into a ziploc of similar bag. Refrigerators pull moisture out of things, and the pizza crust is already susceptible to that from just the refrigeration.

You know you’re telling on yourself right. Parents are supposed to teach their kids these skills, man what have you been doing!! (/s)

If this is a shared fridge i would try to implement a 2-3 drink per person policy to get those boxes of drinks out of there. Keep the boxes of drinks nearby and refill as you take cold ones. The freezer can be used if consumption rate is gonna be faster than the cooling rate.

Since you didn’t learn from the top comment in your last thread, allow me to repeat it here:

It’s your fault, accept the shame and teach her.

A fridge full of condiments and no food. Why don’t you throw out some of those (probably expired) jars of goop so there’s room for leftovers?

You’re right, I’m getting side tracked; let’s keep the conversation about your daughter. Maybe you should have a talk with who raised her?

Edit: just saw your linked post about the dishwasher. Wow dude. Two years and you’re bitching to the internet instead of raising your children. I hope you’re looking forward to sitting in that nursing home wondering why the kids never call.

Gift idea for your daughter

Weirdly enough I had a similar problem until I took the Washington state food handlers test and certification online. It basically showed me why many of my untrained food storage habits were actually dangerous.

I mean … I still do that but at least now I know.

Honesty I would put it down

Says the person who’s wasting letters writing titles inefficientlylyly

She also loads the fridge badly.

Condiments are the death of refrigerator space. All different sizes, almost never consumed quickly, and they eat up space waiting to be used.
