I posted awhile back that I was making plans for the time when it is just me, my ss7 and my daughter while my dh is at work. Will it has been 5 days and it looks like it is helping. Plus the fact that he is taking his ADD medicine may be helping to He really liked the idea of getting stars for doing the chores and being able to earn rewards, not big stuff, $1 toys from doller tree or choosing what we have for dinner. He knows what is expected of him and it is written out on a poster board, so everyday he has woken up and made his bed without being asked...he gets a star for that, He brushes his teeth and picks up his room before bed without being asked he gets a star for that. He has a poster of the basic manners he should follow, if he follows them he gets a star if he doesn't do to many of them he losses a star from something else. So he has been doing all of that all week, I'm still having a bit of problem with him listening and doing things the first time he is asked, he just ignores it but its better then without the pills. He really liked all the little activities I bought him, color in posters, models and puzzles and stuff so that keeps him occupied and out of trouble. So I am being hopeful that things will be better this summer..........Fingers crossed.
