I am so proud of my little guy. He took it very well when I told him on Tuesday night that he could not play with either the Playstation or the laptop during the week. Only on weekends. And he was very compliant and even told my father on Wednesday that he could not play with electronic toys until Saturday. It was funny because he started playing with the Leapster and told my Dad that the Leapster was not an electronic toy. He does not understand the "electronic toys" category very well. I need to teach him. But I am purposely allowing him to play this week with the Leapster because I didn't want to cut every electronic toy cold turkey. It could have been very frustrating. I will tell him on Sunday that the Leapster is also allowed only on weekends. Since he doesn't play well on his own, he was very bored on Wednesday. And today he played with his music CDs (something he had not done in months). It'll get better.
From what I can tell from his reactions and comments, I believe he is doing better at school. In addition, he got another green card, which he had not gotten in weeks (the positive reinforcement card). I was so excited to see that. It means that it was the right move!
With regards to behavior, I believe it is better. The only thing that changed is that I added 5 mg of vitamin K2 again this week. I ran out a month ago. I am starting to think that it is actually helping him because he is not nearly is hyper and jumpy as we was.
