How would you solve this adult discipline problem?

My husband has alot of learning disabilities. He can be a very nice person but I didn't understand how this learning disabilites show up in many ways until I was working in a school with kids with these problems. I don't ask for that much but when I do I expect him to co-operate. I have asked him to put our mail in a wire rack & not sit it anywhere else in the house. About once every 3 weeks I find mail somewhere else in the house. This could cost me alot of money & trouble so I tell him again that it is important that we don't lose the mail. I can see he is going to keep doing this. I thought about calling the post office & stopping the mail service & we will have to pick it up. I really don't want to do that. Is there another way I can get him to just put the ******* mail in the mail tray. Thank you!

Well, there's a saying in Spanish... I'm bout to translate it... It makes more sense in its origin language... Tree That Grows Curved, Will Never Go Straight... Thing is. Whether he is used to this way of his or not, yeah! he must change his way, but you must talk to him. Does he know it can cost a lot of money? Cause if he doesn't know that to him it's like if you're just bothering him with something that really doesn't matter, like if you were making a BIG, HUGE deal out of it. Now, know that we men are less responsible in the house. I hate to say this cause I'm a man and I am not, but most of us are. We tend to be lazy in the house. For ex; I'm in the kitchen and I see the mail that must go to the room in the wire rack, but after the kitchen I was planning to go to the living room, so because I'm lazy and it's easier I'll probably just move it closer to the room, that way I go to the living room as I was planning and then I'll put it in the wire rack. What happens afterward is that you were to focused on TV or whatever you were doing in the living room that you forget about the mail and when it's time to go to the room, he just won't see him

So I advice, you place him a discipline, depending on at what time the mail arrives and he gets back to work, tell him, that after he reads his mails, he must read it next to the wire rack, so when he finishes, he'll put it right back and he won't have to be "bothered" to go back and place it there. Propose that and let me know how it was. What you think?

If you know he's not going to do it, why do you expect it of him? Life is too short to freak out over something so trivial. Just do it yourself and that's that.

Looks like he is not going to do it, either because of a learning disability or a personality problem.

If it's going to impact your finances by loosing the bills, set up a post office box and you pick up the mail.
