[QUOTE="DDD, post: 451273, member: 35"] I've never faced those circumstances so no expert advise coming your way. on the other hand having raised so many over the years I think the less cluttered a bedroom is (actually any room) the easier it is for kids to feel settled. It sounds a bit silly but too many toys, books and even clothes in a room can trigger anxiety. Closets hung with only a few choices, dresser drawers with just a couple of pairs of underwear/socks etc. makes it wasy to make choices and it also limits the tendency to toss things around the room. Of course, the remainder of the clothes are switched out so the dirty ones go to the laundry room and are immediately replaced with clean. Regarding walls, curtains, rugs etc. I would guess that the sturdier and simpler the better. Low maintenance and not too expensive seems like a good idea. I've also never had a "picker" in the family but maybe someone here will have a suggestion for providing some type of acceptable object to use when those urges come forth. I'm not too creative so I can't think of anything, lol. Good luck. DDD [/QUOTE]
