[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 306952, member: 1550"] I've always had soft neurological signs, since childhood, and I had one heck of a time remembering where I put things. When I was a child I would put something down and, unless my mind wasn't wandering and it usually was :raspberry-tounge:, I didn't even remember what I did with it. My mom found my things everywhere from in school bathrooms to the refrigerator once. I'm still spacy that way, but I have learned to think very hard about what I do with things and put them in the same place every time. This is, strangely, a hard concept for a kid with a short term memory problem, which it sounds like he might have. Look in the most improbable places. My mom used to scream at me all the time for losing text books. To avoid this, in high school I started stealing other student's books. I didn't do it to be malicious. I panicked and took them. I just wanted you to know what MAY be going on with your little guy, and that he's not the only one and that he probably needs some hands on to help him compensate for his poor short term memory. These are probably things you already figured out. I know they are annoying. I used to get very annoyed with MYSELF! I still do when I lose things. When people complain about "senior moments" i say, "Welcome to my world.":raspberry-tounge: [/QUOTE]
