[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 67136, member: 1631"] I've never been one that it matters if their rooms are messy (to a point) because my mom was a neat freak and it drove me crazy. I know when difficult child was younger I would make some of his clutter disappear. When he wasn't around I would toss stuff I figured he wouldn't miss. He never did notice. When my difficult child was 6 no way could he clean a room on his own but part of that is with-some of his issues. I remember the Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) therapist we saw last year when difficult child was 9 saying he was emotionally like a 3-4 year old. We had to be there with-him step by step. Now he still needs help but tries harder to keep it clean. As for mess he leaves around the house I will tell him it gets picked up or no (whatever it is he wants at the time). He's not happy but he'll begrudgingly get it done. BBK-I'm sorry it's so hard right now-sending some hugs your way! [/QUOTE]
