I did have some success by placing it with our coats so he didn't even get it out but he still does it and I can't think of a nice way to tell him to put it away when we are at family functions. And by nice I mean not hiding it in my coat and getting the point across without him going "No one got mad, stop worrying so much". It's getting to the point at a few functions we have had to distract him but how do you tell someone nicely to please put the iPad away?
Find something attractive to do in a family meeting that will make him see there's something better for him to do than use the iPad
