[QUOTE="Fran, post: 248008, member: 3"] Terry, I would probably do an increasing consequence. If he is on the computer once then he is banned for 24 hrs. 2nd time 48hrs. The other thing to consider is collaborating with him. It's beastly to not be able to sleep for whatever reason(as I sit here at 4AM). Ask him for suggestions. Does he have any thoughts about what would help him to sleep or at least stay in bed? Computers are dangerous in the hands of someone unsupervised. In the end, I would ask him what he thought would be a fair punishment/deterrent for him when he does play on the computer when he knows he is not supposed to? Maybe then his restlessness would be a joint issue to work on as opposed to a behavior that appears to be oppositional. [/QUOTE]
