history: I am baffled as to why it's so difficult for teenage boys and adult men to remember to take out the trash.  I swear even if I remind my son all throughout the day and the morning of trash day.  He always seem to respond to hearing the trash man either approaching or passing the house. I am so trying to find a creative way to make my son remember to take out the trash.  I'm wondering if it's just a man thing_comma_ a generational thing because I remember hearing my grandmother and my mom fuss about it.  Now it is my turn and I'm so over it. If your son is very young and you give him an allowance then tie it to that!
current: Well, he's 20 almost 21 now and I thought that as he grew older it would become automatic.  I don't want his potential wife to be frustrated by what should be automatic.  
next: Haha sadly it does not. I still hold off on doing it in my own apartment at 26. Unless they are very young I don't think here really is a good way unless it smells
