DD4 is much more creative and colorful than DS7. I've been trying to get them both in the habit of keeping their rooms clean, but I've been having a bit of an issue with her. She likes to take anything that is colorful (bead necklaces, colored paper chains, even the princess dress up clothes that we got her for her birthday) and hang them all over her room because "it looks pretty that way" The result is that it looks sloppy. It looks like a box of random objects exploded in her room. It's not like she doesn't have color in there - she has a butterfly comforter, rainbow curtains, and a giant rainbow painted across two walls. But I also understand that anxiety disorders run in my family and while I don't have OCD, I have seen some tendencies in that direction. If something isn't neat and organized, it bothers me, and I could very well be overreacting to this. So....since she is actively trying to decorate her room, and not just being lazy and not picking up her stuff, should I let it stay? And if so, how do I define when the room is "clean"? I want her to learn to take responsibility for her own stuff, and I also want her to learn organizational skills that will help her later - but I don't want to make her miserable in her own room.
