[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Simple: Everyday, anything left on the floor or purposely not put in the right plave goes in a basket. He needs to do a chore to get each item back (wi flex mirrors, empty dishwasher, vacuum one room.) If something is not claimed in 1 week, it goes to Good Will. No arguing, no negotiations. No food in the bedroom. Only bottled water. If he doesn't put clean clothes away in drawers or closets, he does the laundry for a week. When teens act like toddlers, they get treated like toddlers. And this is not an ADD disorder. This is a TEEN disorder. Don't let his diagnosis be a crutch. [/quote] +1 Why is there no mention of punishment? His actions and lack of cleanliness are an unacceptable action and therefore there should be consequences. No consequences, no change in behavior. This really isn't that hard of a problem to solve, but you just let him walk all over you. [/quote]
