What I use is get a nice big white board for the wall, you can get them fairly cheap or you might be able to get an old one someone's throwing away. Use permanent marker to mark out the days of the week in a grid, and permanent marker for anything that's the same each day (you can get it off with nail polish remover if it does change) like what time to get up for school etc. Then you can use white board markers to update it each week with stuff that changes. I would suggest you get your lad to help you make the board and choose the colour pens and puts some stickers on it, so that he sees it as his thing to help him, not your thing to nag him with if you see what I mean.

i know what you're saying! the psychiatrist was not too clear cut, just make a time table! my son is 7 in 2 days time! it's basically the evening and where to position his free time, home work, chours? i don't want him to be over simulated at bedtime he can have me up all night yapping or watching scatoony until 2AM then my other son has night terrors! so i got double trouble!

www.freeprintablebehaviorcharts.com/This site has all sorts of stuff, not just about behaviour btw, and charts can be personalised or have characters (eg spongebob). There's also stuff about adhd and odd etc though I haven't read it. I often make my own reward charts using a table in word which is really easy. The hard part is actually using the chart for more than a couple of days before i give up!

Yeah Bonkers, We had help with our eldest son in the summer. This was quite traumatic for me because I am part of the problem. He responded positively but because of that we took some of the pressure off. He has reverted and now I am having to overcome the ADD to behave like an adult again. Remembering how to be consistant is a battle.

Although it is on line, you can print it off. When he gets older it will send e-mail and text message reminders for free.
