I especially enjoyed the part about leaving his collections in the room. I've always seen my daughter's piles and knick-knacks as clutter--but you are so right that these items are part of the child's sense of self.

I'm happy that work with the 1st two has provided more peace of mind for your son. Given the amount of time we spend in our bedrooms, this effort is so worthwhile. Thanks for sharing your personal account of your compassionate, open and creative process of assisting your son. What a wonderful way to combine accessibility, energy and self-empowerment!
