[QUOTE="keista, post: 477292, member: 11965"] You may end up pleasantly surprised. While I realize that he's not being very helpful physically, it doesn't mean that he's not mentally/emotionally carrying the burden. Once that burden of "worrying" is lifted, he may be better able to focus on his job hunt - something he should be more capable of. I'm suggesting this only because that's kinda the way I function. Even on days when I end up getting absolutely NOTHING accomplished, I feel completely drained because I've been worried about this needing to get done, and how am I going to to that? and then there were those things, and on and on and on goes the list. And even if I write out the list of things to get done, I can spend the better part of the day prioritizing, and then I'll start things, and get side tracked by other tasks, and then need a break and then other things that need immediate attention are upon me, and before I know it, a week has gone by, nothing is finished, and I am EXHAUSTED. So, what I'm saying is, don't be so sure that he doesn't really get it. Once his mom is there relieving him of the burden of "[B]worry[/B] about the house", he may function "normally" again. [/QUOTE]
