Yesterday morning, when I sat down to write the late-afternoon post, I noticed SEVERAL items thrown in back of the computer.
Papers, a soup bowl, a pair of underpants.....
Now, I had moved the computer and cleaned there THOROUGHLY just 2 days ago in anticipation of a computer technician’s visit. And always (when I see the stuff) I make Ricki clean up whatever she throws on the floor, whether it is behind the computer, next to the stove, or wherever.
Obviously I left the discarded items there and made her pick them up on her return from school. But sometimes I just get so “fed up” and exasperated with the innumerable times I need to intervene with Ricki. The fact that she needs behavior training on SO many areas... it just makes me tired sometimes. (But only occasionally.)
me too (and my child is only ADD, not DS -- I cannot fathom how much more challenging it is with a DS kid!)
