[QUOTE="Andy, post: 272792, member: 5096"] 1st, check the ground outside his bedroom for the shoes. Can he open the window to toss them? Also between the matress and box spring - way deep in the middle or take drawers out of desks and dressers to see if they are behind there. 2nd, How is his attitude in his groundings? It sounds like you are super strict and that may be what he needs. If his behavior during this is compliance, maybe he is enjoying the structure? When you lift his grounding, maybe enforce a schedule. Set up the times he is allowed in each room of the house. Make a poster of what he is allowed to do in each room. Does he like to read? He may like detective stories where he gets to figure out the "who done it". My 12 yr old difficult child loves joke books which gets him to laugh. Laughter is good. I know constant supervision is so draining of your energy so maybe a time schedule of what time he is allowed to do what will help? Then you don't have to worry about what is next. [/QUOTE]
