Right now we are trying to come up with a system to help Paul with his clothes.  His laundry hamper is always full a couple of days after he does laundry.  We make sure that all his clothes are put away on laundry day but somehow they always end up back in his hamper.  By Wednesday of every week his hamper is surrounded by clothes that he has pulled out of the hamper to wear.  The only thing that I can think of the stop this is to keep his hamper in the laundry room and pick out his clothes for him.  I know that this will lead to a huge fight because it will make him seem different so we are reluctant to go there.  After all he is the one that has to wear his dirty clothes, so who is he really hurting?

I think we are having a hard time understanding why he does it.  It can’t be any easier to dig through the hamper when most of his clothes are hanging in his closet.  I actually wonder if in his mind the hamper is where clothes come from because when we make him change he goes straight for the hamper.
