Nhà tôi cạn tiền vì quá nhiều tiền ăn

vợ rất nhiệt tình hưởng ứng phong trào hành tinh xanh, giảm rác thải nhựa -> rất khó hiểu khi vợ ko như vậy đối đồ ăn hằng ngày, mua lãng phí quá nhiều hoa quả, rau, đến mức thối trong tủ lạnh mà chưa kịp ăn -> phải làm sao?

-> do quá chú trọng đến mục tiêu này mà quên mục tiêu khác -> đừng suốt ngày "lên lớp" vợ về vấn đề này -> giúp vợ lên danh sách mua thực phẩm khi đi chợ, ghi số lượng cụ thể

Hi Dan.

My wife is pretty involved with green initiatives—in particular, reducing plastic waste. She tries to get bars and restaurants to stop offering plastic straws, she purchases products that do not use plastic packages, and once a month we volunteer to clean up trash in public spaces. So I'm baffled that she doesn't have the same reaction to wasting food. When it's her turn to go grocery shopping, she always brings home such an excess of fruits and vegetables that many of them rot before we have a chance to eat them. We've had many conversations about this, but nothing has worked so far. What can I do?

It is often the case that when we care a lot about one thing, we focus on it to the exclusion of other priorities. So don't take your wife's behavior too personally, and don't try repeatedly to educate her about it. Instead, why don't you simply help by making a shopping list? When we go shopping with a shopping list we are likely to stick to it. If you write down the specific amount of needed fruits and vegetables, the odds are that the waste problem will be solved.
