Enraging co-parenting

I sort all life admin for DC. Their dad can't/won't/will forget to do it, even if prompted. I stupidly asked him to do one thing as it coincided with his contact. Had a week's notice and it's not done, of course. Same thing with any events involving DC, always forgets.

Fed up of "I forgot" or "I'll try". I've tried message reminders, a shared diary app, parenting apps. They don't get looked at, so it's been a waste of time uploading anything to them.

Sorry for the rant. AIBU to say: please, for the love of my sanity, find a way to get organised? Any other stock phrases would be greatly appreciated!

Does he like Star Wars? Because you could channel Yoda, "do or do not do, there is not try". Or the more succinct, "trying is lying".

The fact is he won't do it, so you will have to. There's no making him. There's less admin as they grow and it will become less and less important.
