PinkSapphireAngel Report post Posted July 28, 2006 Luke is 11 and a half but is COMPLETELY incapable of looking after anything himself. Even when I give him specific places to keep his things he LOSES them. Today he is going away with one of his brothers, 2 of his cousins and my inlaws and we cannot find either of his 2 Gameboys! His 9 year old brother knew exactly where his was, but I cannot find either of Luke's ANYWHERE and its really stressed me as I know he will start the "I'm bored" thing while away as he is not able to play with the others for very long periods.

marshmallow Report post Posted July 28, 2006 Hope you find them soon! Sounds like our whole household, though I think that is because DS2 is an expert at hiding things! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PinkSapphireAngel Report post Posted July 28, 2006 AMAZINGLY I actually found the DS!!! I had to rip their tip of a room to shreds and I am dripping in sweat but I found it and have put it on charge ready for Luke to take with him (and HOPEFULLY manage to bring back with him) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmuir Report post Posted July 28, 2006 Hi My son is like that. He's 4.5 (has AS) and keeps losing, funnily enough, his gamboy and games. I've noticed that his long term memory is amazing to say the least, but am pretty sure his short term memory is poor. Caroline Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lil_me Report post Posted July 28, 2006 Oh yes short term and long term memory are so different with my son too. He can remember every detail of when we took him swimming when he was 2 to somewhere he'd never been and hasn't been since (he is 7 now) but if you ask him where he put the ?1 I gave him this morning or what he had for lunch, he has no idea Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
