Oh gosh, XABF used to use this section of the Bible against me.
"StarCat, when you were a child you could talk and think and reason like a child, but now that you're an adult it's time to put the childish things behind you and start taking care of things!"
He would then proceed to nag me about not doing enough housework around
my apartment while he sat at the dining room table and told me what to do.
Even when he "helped" either things had to be redone (like when he "washed" dishes) or else I had to hold his pants up so they wouldn't slip down while he did whatever it was he was doing, so him "helping" didn't give me any space, either.
But somehow in his mind giving up childish things meant doing everything for him so he didn't have to do anything.
Which, to be honest, doesn't surprise me, as that's what his mother always did for him.
What more can you expect from someone who proudly boasts,
"I have never done my own laundry
ever in my entire life!"
