Thanks for the ideas. I think the issue of prioritizing among stimuli

can't really deal well with two people asking me for things at once,
and if there is music on - then I really can't deal with it.

We started the chart this week and so far so good, he always does
better when there are clear goals and consequences involved. The
question is could he sustain this without a chart...

Maybe it doesn't matter whether he could sustain it without a chart.
I can't buy groceries without a written list, or get to appointments
without a datebook.

Perhaps a more relevant question is whether he'll still do it when the
novelty of the chart wears off.
