I want to display to the user a list of all the units and all their sub-units to select from in an ExpandableListView where they can check off which ones they want to move. Since it would seem having clickable Views inside of the ListView prevents it from expanding and collapsing as it naturally would, I was going to simply allow the CheckedChange event to expand/collapse based on the groupPosition. But when I change the check on one CheckBox, several or all groups responds instead of just the group that I'm clicking in.

I attempted working around this issue using this suggestion, but it made no difference in the ListViews ability to naturally expand or collapse.
I tried putting the checkboxes in the children instead of parent and just forcing all groups to be open. But now if I check 3 of the boxes, 3 more boxes will just check themselves at random. I know there is a way to use checkboxes in ListViews, but they are not behaving as expected in mine. Is it an issue with MonoDroid?
