Josh/2010/behavior/past

The following behavior seems to have vanished as of April 2010, apparently as a result of efforts by his caregivers at the therapeutic foster home where he lived from January to early April:

Josh tends to have a "group" of things that he carries around everywhere. He sometimes misplaces one or more items (sometimes in the middle of the night), and may become quite agitated once he notices something is missing. Agitation continues until all items are found, though he may ramp down slightly if he recognizes that a caregiver is looking for the missing item(s). He may also remain agitated for a little while after the item is found, working off the stress and anxiety built up while it was missing.
