You’re right, he’s an adult, he SHOULD know better but clearly he doesn’t give a shit. Have the conversation. He may not even notice when you freshly clean an area but he does need to be aware of when he’s dirtying something. Clean up after yourself is something we learned in kindergarten, if he doesn’t understand that concept I’d start being petty by cleaning up and leaving the wipes or mud flakes or whatever it might be in one of his frequent use areas. Make it a problem that he will want to correct.
Create a spot by the door for him to leave his shoes, no outside shoes in the house. the spit is a common sense thing where if you drip, you clean You shouldn't have to clean up after some basic common knowledge things you dirty you clean simple
I’m a stay at home mom with my asd child right now. Doesn’t mean I’m a maid. He knew I was cleaning he saw me on the floor cleaning. I’ve told him to clean up after himself but he just don’t.
i can’t even think of anything except continue being his mother or leave 🙂 i was gonna say i would tell him once, point out the things like his shoes and his dip spit, ask him to clarify that he knows he should clean up after himself. if he says he will and keeps up great, if he starts a fight and says he shouldn’t have to clean up after himself i would tell him im not your fucking mother clean up after yourself or i’m leaving🤷♀️
I feel like he’s doing it deliberately to get a rise out of you/in order to be controlling. It seems like he doesn’t have any respect for you. Sorry, you’re dealing with that 😔
Well ladies I charged him a $50 cleaning bill and he paid it so next time he better think twice
Did you notify him in advance that you planned to clean? If not, I'd do so, so he can't tell you you didn't clean. If you want to send him proof, take a before and after picture, or do one of those hyperlapses of you cleaning (just once).
@Mei that’s doing too much but good idea tho
Your not his mom or maid so he needs to get it together, I would be annoyed
