Hi, I am wondering if anyone remembers having to tidy their room as a child.... And if so, what difficulties you found. Firstly, I've written here before about my own adult struggles with housework... but this time I'm thinking about my as yet undiagnosed aspergers daughter. She is 8 and I ask her to tidy her room and it simply doesn't get done. So often I end up doing it myself because she doesn't know what to do. The other night I went in to her and she was sat on the edge of her bed with her head in her hands. She was so upset as she 'didn't know where to start or what to do'. I tried showing her ways of doing it and said maybe a list on her wall might help... like 'hang clothes' 'put books on shelf' 'put toys on bed' etc.. She copes better if we break it right down to actual tasks rather than 'Tidy Your Room'. That task is too big. We have a meeting at the paediatrics department in a week to get started on whether she is on the spectrum. Just wondered your thoughts on child bedroom tidying!
