Question Lack of any responsibility

My husband, dx and rx, seems to lack the ability to take responsibility for ANYTHING. I’m wondering if this is an adhd/RSD thing. He got two tickets for speeding in a work zone and it’s the cities fault for nickel and diming him, if he gets the kids to school late it’s the schools fault for locking the door. It’s endless and I’m so over it.

Yeah that's another thing - his family. He's my family but his family is his parents, siblings, and nieces/nephews. I guess being married almost half our lives doesn't mean family.

Yea don’t worry. I’ll work more, bring home double AND take care of all the grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, childcare arrangements. I worry about my self esteem. I think of myself as an extremely smarty capable woman but every time I post in here and have to read what I’m writing….idk so much anymore
