It just never ends if there are 3+ people in the house. There's always clothes to gather, load, wash, move to the dryer, unload, or fold. Each individual load is maybe not that big a deal. But the ever present work lurking in the periphery... Ugh.

wife and 2 kids, I do laundry once or twice a week. Wife and I fold kids clothes and put them away, takes like 15 minutes of actual effort for everything? As for "ever present work lurking in the periphery": the only moment that needs to stay on mind is switching clothes from washer to dryer. The rest doesn't have a time requirement, so let it go. Empty the dryer next time you need to shit or something.

If you have a place to hang them, I recommend hanging everything but socks. You can even consolidate entire outfits on one hanger if you have the normal kind with the bar across the bottom to drape your pants over

I started hanging all my shirts, now I don't even need a dresser. Just put socks in underwear in little bins on the floor, ez. Pants get folded and put in two piles: work and home, on a shelf. Welcome to ADHD clothing storage.

I just don't fold, there is are bins with fresh and one with dirty clothes.

My girlfriend and I do a total of 1 load of laundry a week. If we had a kid or two, that would add another 1 load.

Growing up with my family of four, still just 1-2 laundry loads a week.

Honestly, it has never been bad. I've also been doing my own laundry since I was 11.
