[QUOTE="WSM, post: 280721, member: 5169"] So Sunday night we are arranging temporary alarms towards the window, placing two motion detector ones so he can roll over in bed and get to the door with-o setting them off, but can't go near the window. (husband does have a camera that he wants to secretly install in the room, but he's had it for about 6 months and hasn't done it yet--I'd rather have alarms that stop the behavior before it happens than have a picture recording the behavior after the 'crime' has been completed. Both are great tho). We tried it this way and that, can he go under? husband tested it. Can he walk on the desk and lean down? Can he approach this way or that? Can we hear it from our room? With the TV on? With the TV and air conditioner on? Can it be heard from outside? You should have seen difficult child's face. He was fascinated and there was a very small slight satisfied smile on his face. Beyond creepy. I was satsified with how the alarms were set and went downstairs. difficult child said to husband: "I can get to the window this way." husband had him try it out and it set off alarms. I thought that was very bold. He's telling us that already he's trying to figure out how to get around it. husband even knew it. "He'll figure a way around it, but for now it will have to do." What do you want to bet when difficult child does figure a way around it, husband will say, "But there's no way...." I pretty much think this marriage is over, it's only a question of when we move out. I get a substantial raise next spring, maybe housing prices will improve by then. [/QUOTE]
