[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 452603"] We go through this a lot. Because of the autism they just don't get the boundaries and the impulse control isn't there either. We have locks on the fridge, keyed locks on the outside doors, locks on the laundry room door, difficult child 1 keeps his bedroom door locked when he isn't in it to keep his siblings out. I've tried teaching about not getting into things. The teaching isn't catching on very fast and because of the safety issues I felt I should keep somethings locked up. It doesn't help to get mad at them about it. They'll do it no matter what my reaction is. Most people when the lose their keys get locked out of things. When I lose my keys we're locked inside the house because we have to have the key to get out. It has made for some interesting situations. [/QUOTE]
