amo_mea_filiis. Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 And dd's room is seriously clean! She is in manhattan right now with my father so i decided to tackle her room. Since figuring out that she has a severe dustmite allergy, i *thought* we were doing better with her room. I vacuumed weekly, dusted, had everything picked up, etc. What i found today?! She stuffed stuff inside other stuff and stuffed the stuffed stuff in and behind other stuff! I came across a few things that i'm going to talk to her therapist about, and i now know she is not mature enough to stay up later than me. She will lose access to a few things, but i have no plans to tell her all that i found because i fear she'll just learn how to better hide things. She needs a LOT of supervision. More than ds at this point. I'm sad that we have to regress a bit with independence. She needs supervision when showering or she doesn't come out clean, supervision with all hygiene tasks, obviously internet supervision, room cleaning supervision. I need to stop forgetting, or putting my head in the sand about her. She is NOT neurotypical, but in too many way, i treat her like she is. Anyone else undertake deep cleaning of a kiddo's bedroom? Find anything interesting? Good? Bad? I'm off to do ds's room. Army men, lincoln logs, hot wheels, all out in the open. He doesn't hide things.

Soror Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Not too weird but I've found partial bits of half-eaten fruit before that had fallen behind the bed and one time in the bottom of the dress-up chest. EWWW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amo_mea_filiis. Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Thankfully i never find food. This is ONLY because i know we are not clean enough to eat anywhere but the "hard floors" (kitchen and dining room). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
