[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are they medicated for their ADHD? Half-joking. We are an ADHD household, and have difficulty sorting and tidying up. Not actually cleaning, as in dusting, vacuuming and mopping, which I taught my kids to do. [b]But somehow our brains are overwhelmed by looking at a pile of stuff, and not knowing how to categorize the items and find storage for them. [/b]It's a constant struggle. I wish I had a tidying-up maid, not a housecleaner. The issue, if things are not put away, is that it's harder to clean under the piles. And everything gets dusty and things get lost. You'll have to come back for a bit, or hire someone to teach them to sort, put away and create storage. Someone who can maybe label containers or shelves and create a calendar with "bill pay" and "laundry/fold clothes" days and such. I'm that person in our house, but since I struggle with those skills, it's FAR from perfect. [/quote] I mean, this is pretty typical. [/quote]
