Cleaning extremely dirty kitchen for single mom with ADHD with 3 kids for FREE

[@LAVirgo67]

Moms & Dads - Please start teaching your children to help at home with the chores. My son is on the spectrum & he was taught early on to empty the dishwasher, take out the trash / recycling, keep his dirty clothing in a big trashcan in his room, etc. He needed constant reminding, but it got done. It helped out so much.

[@blessedmommy7805]

with some that's easier said than done.

[@AmberV1978]

My sons with ass are also doing little things in the house ❤

[@swiinka]

Very good point, there are even online resources with lists of tasks appropriate to teach at different ages. I was raised by a single mom, me not contributing to the chores would have been unacceptable.

[@johnkelly9451]

​​@@blessedmommy7805Agree, even a little help is alot of help and beneficial to all even if it's one tiny change for the better... But know what you're saying.

[@pamelaabettis7225]

Kudos to you! Special needs kids are often written off as “unteachable” and it’s just not true. My niece has about 1/3 of a brain and my awesome sister taught her to write and read. It’s at about a 1st grade level but it helps her to communicate and feel so good about herself.

[@Bliss20244]

The easiest way how to do this is decluttering. They actually need 6 person set and that's all. 6 spoons, 6 forks, 6 plates, 6 cups. And get rid of all the plastic. Leave one sippy cup for every baby/toddler. It's easy to keep everything clean if you just load a dishwasher every night.

[@joannevans2505]

What this homeowner could also benefit from is help from a professional decluttering and organizing coach. The volume of water bottles and dishes was overwhelming. Decluttering 75% of the dishes would make her life easier. Also, you don’t need to apologize for using paper towels! 31:19

Decluttering and organizing saves so much time!

I totally agree! Decluttering and organizing is half the battle. When it gets this bad, you know you have too much stuff!

Really great job. I hope she'll be able to begin decluttering and maintain. No one should have enough dishes that it takes 7 hours to wash them. Less stuff, less mess, way less time to keep up.

I grew up on a house that was far worse than this. It is really healing to see people help others in this scenario. Thank you for your hard work, those kids will remember your kindness

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Oh wow, really?! Sadly, I think a lot of people live in these conditions, but they are too ashamed to ask for help and then it just continues to get worse. So I'm curious, did you become really clean because of the mess you grew up in or did living in that kind of mess normalize it and so you continued to live in a similar way?

[@Mama2_3littles]

I know this is 6 months later, but I can too say I grew up in a home that was similar if not also worse. I can remember back when my mom (who suffers from depression, anxiety, epilepsy) struggled with us 3 kids. My dad was constantly working and even worked 15 hours away in another state at one point. That was only because he was opening a new location for his job. Anyway, my point was, she acted as a single mother for a few months while my dad was away. I know she STRUGGLED! I was 13 years old when I recognized her struggle, (also when she had a really aggressive seizure) it basically forced me to grow up quickly, being I was her oldest daughter. I helped out as much as I could with cooking dinner, cleaning, etc. I remember being a little older and thinking to myself that my house isn’t going to be like this when I get older. I started with my room, once my sister moved into my brother’s old room. My parents quickly found out who the cleaner child was 😆. I too thank you for your hard work with this family. I know the mom appreciated everything you’ve done for her and her kids. I also enjoy seeing people help others especially in this day and age sadly.

[@BLC267]

My friend grew up in a house like this and she feels that’s why she is OCD.

[@kaleyjanenigh]

I have ADHD, depression, and anxiety and a 7 year old boy with ASD/ADHD and a 4 year old boy. I've always been somewhat of a disorganized person, "piles" tend to follow me. We just moved back to WI from CO and purchased our first home. I've gotten very into minimalism, decluttering, cleaning, homemaking (you know, that ADHD LASER FOCUS) and it's all changing my freaking LIFE. I'm learning that I CAN do it, small bursts at a time. It's been wonderful for me, and I'm finally proud of my home. Is it perfect? Company-ready? Not usually! But I can get it to that point A LOT quicker! I'm a new sub, thanks so much for all you do! I'm LIVING for your pro tips! ❤

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you for sharing your experience. I love that it shows what people with these kinds of challenges are capable of. I think decluttering and minimalism is key in these situations. I understand the tendency to overbuy things when you are in a depressed state and that gives you a little boost for a minute, but what it really does in the long run is just adds to the depression and anxiety. I'm so glad you've learned that and are taking steps to keep your new home in order. I applaud you!👏❤️

[@autobotdiva9268]

try an alexa for your living, kitchen and bedroom and do weekly or biweekly commands for you. use your google calendar. become a minimalist. make a command center for when you come home. my 22 year old has A.D.D. and i have him down to 1 quilt, 2 bedsheet sets, 2 comforters, 1 google nest, 2 tile trackers. #adhdadvocate #dysgraphiaadvocate

[@vmdyer6743]

If you don't teach your kids how to help clean and that there are chores to do how will they know what to do when they grow up ? That is the purpose of teaching .and have family time .tell stories about what you did when you was their size and make it a fun time .in a family everyone needs to help.

[@mrsducky3428]

​@@vmdyer6743 agreed! Had a friend who had 2 small children when her husband unalived himself, in the house. A huge trauma. When the kids were about 8 & 10 she had an all day mandatory event at her college and asked us to watch the kids. The house was filthy, we had all day, so we engaged the kids in help cleaning. Like they literally didn't know where the toilet paper was stored. They didn't know where the dishes went. They didn't know how to run the dishwasher nor the clothes washer. It wasn't lazy, they weren't disabled. No one had ever taught them any of that. Not any of the grandma's, grandpa's, great grandma's, aunt's, uncle's, no one! They had a huge family all living within a few miles, and no one came in and helped mom, nor taught the kids. The kids didn't even object to helping, but we're just dumbfounded. Once the understood the assignment, they were willing to do the work.

[@CammyHell]

I love it when there’s no music and I can hear the cleaning sounds ❤

[@nativeamericanfeather9948]

Me too!! The back and forth from talking to loud crazy music drives me crazy!! Constantly adjusting my volume so I turn it all the way down..then don't hear what they say. So this was really nice

[@dccd673]

I use a sound machine during nights, the sound of the scrubbing needs to be part of it 😂 it almost made me fall asleep again

[@BearcatEm]

I actually had the opposite experience and couldn't get through the video because of it. I think if it had sounded like normal cleaning sounds it might've been different for me but the sound was so distorted and sounded almost underwater, maybe because it's sped up, that it was really grating for me. I do agree about the annoyance of having to constantly adjust volume on some videos with music but that was what I was having to do on this one so I would've preferred, if there wasn't going to be music, just silence between the voiceovers. Either way, you helping her out is a great thing to do for her and for her kiddos!

[@CammyHell]

@@BearcatEm it’s funny how different everyone’s preferences are and it’s impossible for content craters to accommodate everyone. For me I prefer soft piano music or at least music that’s relaxing and without words if there’s going to be music because words force me to change what I’m thinking about due to the words if that makes any sense

That was such a smart idea to wash all of those dishes outside and let the sun dry them! The sun helped kill bacteria/mold as well. Not to mention how nice it would have been to just work outside. I hope you get to do it with the hose one day. I’d love to see that! Do you find that dishes get done more when people have fewer dishes? I was surprised at the amount of dishes in the home.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Yeah, I was really looking forward to doing this all outside. And there's just something about being out in the sun that makes you happy and a little more motivated. It all worked out though! Yes, I definitely think that paring down on the amount of dishes would help keep on top of the dishes because you are forced to wash something before you can use it, rather than just dirtying up more dishes. I personally like to have two of everything for each person in our home with the exception of a few items, like silverware.

[@lia-liz2012]

​@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wpas a baker, I too probably have too much for my tiny kitchen but I've figured out a way in another room to keep alot of items and are easy to get to but yeah, I require alot of items especially since I'm also a part time cake decorator 😊

[@frugalfinds13]

All I can say is THANK YOU. I have one 6 year old on the spectrum and have autism myself as well as depression and anxiety. I struggle with my home and it’s nice to see that I’m not the only one who doesn’t have a home that looks like a magazine as this is what we see everyday on Instagram, etc. Fortunately I have started feeling better on a new medication and have began to tackle my home one room at a time. I wish there was a service like this in my area. For someone who is ready to make a change, getting the home to a point where it is ready to be maintained would be a huge stress relief. I love you for this! ❤

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing your perspective on this because, you're absolutely right, you Are Not Alone and those Instagram homes that you see can make people like yourself feel really bad about their situation I think. I think the reality is there are A LOT more people who have homes like the ones you see in my video than we would ever imagine, but they are just too ashamed to ask for help. I think a lot of people just give up because they see no way out of their situation and it just continues to get worse and worse. But you're right, if someone is ready for change, they definitely need someone who is not going to judge them for how things got that way and simply just help them get started with the process of taking back control.🥰🙏

There's a channel called Remi Clog who struggles with Executive Disfunction and shows how she cleans her home. I find her very sweet and understanding and maybe it also helps you to watch someone who struggles with mental health but still just tries her best. ❤

@@Smittenhamster I love Remi! I don't have a ton of time anymore to watch other cleaning channels, but try to listen to them in the background as I clean. She would be a good one to "watch" more of.

I'm learning a lot from each of these situations.

I used to clean my brother’s condo 3 times a month when he was a bachelor and I swear he had no idea what a dishwasher was or what it did because I would spend a minimum of 2 hours just washing dishes. I finally took it upon myself and threw out over half of his dishes and he didn’t even notice 😂 but it made my job easier in the long run. Great job Bonnie, I’m glad Mack recommended your channel.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Lol! I'm so tempted sometimes to do the same thing in these homes. I think they would get used to it and realize that they don't need so much and that their lives are actually a lot easier without all of the extra. Too bad I would lose a lot of trust and probably not get any people who wanted to have me help them if I did that.😁 Thanks so much for being here!❤️

[@idid138]

​@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp maybe bring a couple boxes for "time will tell bins" ask them to put their favorites in the cupboard 1st (especially for mugs) and then when they have enough to go a couple meals without washing, put the extras away somewhere to experiment if it's easier to live with less. This was advice I took from, The Minimal Mom, and it has served me well. Extras are still in the basement & I can go shopping there if I break things or have a big dinner party. It has kept me from creating the dish mountains and also makes putting everything away much easier.

No judgement here, but I can say from experience that the more dishes you have, the lazier you become. I used to have a boat load of silverware so that I didn't have to wash dishes until they were piled all over my kitchen. Then when I didn't have any clean dishes to use, I would look at the pile of dirty ones knowing that they now needed to be washed and I would have a full-on panic attack. I finally did a kitchen declutter, and now my kitchen stays clean. I kept only 4 plates, four bowls, spoons, forks ETC. It's only me and my husband, so there is no need to have an overwhelming amount of kitchen stuff.

[@intherockies]

I got rid of all my extra dishes too. I would have piles of dishes in the sink and on the side of the sink. I would get overwhelmed and shut down so nothing would get done. I decided I would keep enough in the cabinet for two days worth. It has really helped. I still have a pile but I can get it done easier now.

[@jackieblack4422]

We had 8 kids in my family, my mother did all the chores herself, she didn't have a dishwasher and I can't remember ever seeing a dirty dish in the sink. She had minimal dishes and furnishings. I think this allowed her to keep things spotless. We wore hand me down clothes, which helped with space saving.

[@mishamandudi75]

[@marlenevs9353]

Yes! Even though people especially in the US are tired of hearing this but I really believe that if you only keep the essentials in your house, you won't end up with this kind of mess (coming from a naturally messy person). If you only have one or two water bottles you will be forced to clean them regularly and won't end up with a bucket full of water bottles to tend to.

If you struggle to keep on top of your dishes own fewer dishes. I have ADHD and I have 4 of each item while also having only ONE of certain things. Like 1 travel mug, 1 Stanley water cup (and no other water bottles) 1 frying pan, 1 pot of each size (sm, med, lg), 1 whisk etc. Minimizing my cooking utensils means if I want to eat I HAVE to do dishes, this is HUGE in combating the ADHD.

[@jeanieg2294]

I never judge people by the conditions of their homes, because you never know what someone might be going through, BUT I really struggle when they let their dirty dishes pile up like that. If the dishes and laundry are able to pile up then you need to declutter some. I know when I reached out for help that’s what I asked for help with. So no judgement from me just a kindred soul sharing my story. ❤ great job I bet that mom really appreciated all your help.

[@lia-liz2012]

It's not judging but she DOES have issues that would make her not see things the way others do and it's definitely contributed to her illness. I personally can't let stuff get stuck on my dishes but she might not even think about it in her certain states of mind.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

I actually believe there is some executive dysfunction going on here. I will talk a little bit more about that in next week's video, but it would make sense in this situation because I really don't think she is able to really "see" the mess as we do. I think a lot of the people that I help have executive dysfunction and it makes it really hard for them to keep on top of their homes. They definitely would benefit from a schedule and some decluttering.

[@HereatJodstas]

Definitely executive functioning saying you can’t leave dishes like that is judging. Overwhelming issues stop you from doing things. Lots of mental health issues underlying this. She may be thinking she doesn’t want to leave it like this but can’t physically do it. This is what I’m going through. Thank you for helping out this lady.

You did a wonderful job there. The house honestly didn't look tooooo bad, just like she needed a friend to help her with and some declutterering. Btw on the paper towels, if covid taught me one thing it's that hygiene and environmentally friendliness unfortunately often don't go together. Paper towels were the right call here.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Thank you so much. ❤️And, yes, the more people comment about how much time and resources it takes to wash something rather than just using paper towels, which is a renewable resource, the less I think I need to apologize for being "wasteful."

[@BitOHoney276]

I have a friend who had so much clothing that she could go 6 weeks without washing..... can we say too much clothing, or too many dishes?? Sometimes our messiness is from owning too many things.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

I completely agree

[@HereatJodstas]

Messiness comes from mental health

[@brendaturpen9336]

I’m glad to meet someone else who knows the right way to load a dishwasher. Ha! My adult kids still laugh about me fuming over the way they’d “dangle cups and bowls on sticks!” (The upright rods to separate plates) You had a frustrating time at this house, with the outside dishwashing scheme not working out, the spilled water, the corrupted files, etc., but you made a great video from it. Love your channel!

Haha! Yes, don't they know that dangling cups on those little rods doesn't work? It just means that the cups will get flipped and end up with water inside of them.😁

Dish washers are a waste of space & time if I had to CHOOSE I'd take two washing machines & two dryers B4 a dish washer. An industrial freezer & FRIDGE to put my baked goods. After baking & decorating..

[@Lili-ls7um]

Well done! I think when it’s really oily, it can be more wasteful to use reusable by the time we use all the hot water and soap to rinse it off. So sometimes paper towels makes sense. I noticed her stand mixer was clean despite the fresh buns. I think she did do dishes just didn’t manage to wash as fast as they were dirtied.

[@mari_3kyu]

Ah yes. I can see my future. No but, for real, I have days where I struggle with staying on top of things, but the days where my routine gets broken are absolute wreckers. Can't imagine doing all that AND THEN ADD 3 kids on top. And a surgery???? I do agree she should declutter a few things (less dishes = less time between having to wash them), but if the kids are doing fine, they are clean,they are loved, they are cared for with their mental health struggles and conditions (and there's no massive bug infestation), as far as I'm concerned, she's been doing a great job. You go mom!

[@CindyBear38]

I am also a single mom with 3 kids, and my oldest also has autism. When they were young the 2 youngest naturally imitated their older sibling as kids do, so it was like having 3 with autism instead of one until they got old enough to understand. So i totally understand her and can relate.

First time watching and I gotta say I like your whole method of taking the dishes out to dry. The sun actually kills bacteria and that’s recommended to do once cleaning your wooden cutting boards is direct sunlight. Secondly the whole paper towels.

When my mom was older and living alone she got rid of most of her dishes. She was able to put everything in the dishwasher at one time. She said it solved having a sink full of dirty dishes. In my home when one of us is ill we use a lot of paper plates and bowls. It keeps things more in control.

[@elisabethivey5615]

I was going to say this too! We have a family of 3 and can fit 75% of our dishes in the dishwasher. (Excluding big things like pots, etc)

[@drfreud65]

I absolutely LOVE that Dawn Power Wash Spray! I used it on someone's walls that had 25 years of tobacco stained on them and they turned out as white as if they were freshly painted. The grease mixed with tobacco in that kitchen came off too, but some of that grease was so old and thick that I took off some paint with it. To be fair, the lady said she'd only used one coat of paint in the kitchen all those years ago, so she wasn't upset.

I have a question. Do you ever go into a space and feel immediately overwhelmed? Like “where do I even start”?!

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

Definitely. And then I just take a minute to look around and see what would make the biggest difference the fastest because that always gets me motivated to just keep going. In this case, it was gathering the dishes and getting them soaking. In some cases, it's gathering the laundry or picking up the trash. But then I still have my moments like I did in this one where I just don't know where to put anything when there's such limited space and every square inch is covered with stuff!

[@AutisMinasClearingClutter]

Your relief from realizing there was mostly just water in the water bottles, haha. Also, the way I look at it it's prioritizing your sanity over sustainability what with using that paper towel. I feel like people often don't realize how many extra steps it takes to be sustainable. And although sustainability has been kind of my obsession for a while, I now realize that sometimes trying to stay sane and functional means not being able to be sustainable for a bit.

​@@jill9119 you never know that for sure and you don't really know the situation.

Also, she has multiple kids with their own challenges and struggles herself. She may have absolutely no support. If you've ever been on your own completely without the means for childcare it is extremely hard to just get basic things done. Things stack up quickly when you just don't have the time.

But that doesn't really help anyone going through struggles like this to reach out for help by pointing it out. I only offered a differing opnion so anyone that may not have it as rough wouldn't feel shame for asking for help. Some people just can't do it on their own.

I have ONE water bottle, for both hot and cold and I know where it is at all times. Having only one saves a lot of cabinet storage space and eliminates a lot of clutter.

[@RadCenter]

Having fewer possessions forces you to clean them more regularly. For example, if you only have 5 water bottles and you use one per workday, you need to clean them at least once a week if you're going to have clean water bottles for the next week. Same goes for clothing, towels, etc. Having excess allows you to postpone cleaning-until it has developed into a massive "project" like this. A greatly simplified home with regular cleaning routines would also be beneficial to the son with autism. Clutter and chaos causes stress in autistic people.

[@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp]

I 100% agree with everything you have said. That's exactly how I manage stuff at my house. I can only do so much here because I'm not a therapist, but I always hope that they reduce the amount of items they own to make it easier for them to keep it clean.

[@JMarieCAlove]

Well, since she’s a single mom, she has a kid who’s autistic, other kids to take care of and the single mom has ADHD, then works. She doesn’t think about less clutter would be easier, maybe in her mind she can’t deal with a lot especially doing it all herself is hard. She probably buys something new and clean so she doesn’t have to think about cleaning, it’s easier for her. She’s overwhelmed, stressed and again, no one to help her everyday. Some people think they should live and be like them but they have no idea what that person is going through personally everyday. You can leave a message for on here, I’m sure she reads these comments. Let her know she needs to get rid of most of her water bottles and dishes so she can clean up more often. I’m sure she’ll thank you for pointing out how her home looks. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
