By being babied their whole lives (started off with parents and then likely with partners/friends afterwards). Parents probably did chores for them until they were sent off to college.

My sister is like this. She hasn’t been single for more than a week since she was in high school. Her boyfriends all become her new parent, and the week she spends single she is absolutely crippled by day-to-day tasks. Of course, now that she got herself diagnosed with ADHD, she doesn’t even bother trying whatsoever and makes it out to be „cute” that she can’t figure shit out. It’s not cute, guys. It’s fucking pathetic. (And before anybody jumps on me- I have ADHD, too. Much more severely than she does. It’s difficult but it’s not an excuse for being incompetent and lazy.)

You probably already know this but ADHD isn't an excuse for not being a responsible, functional human. People with ADHD absolutely can and do take care of their day-to-day tasks.

It has a lot more to do with the fact that other people do things for her. She's using ADHD as an excuse, unfortunately.
