[quote=Anonymous] Boy with ADHD. Very strong-willed and tries to control the situation and other people. I keep trying to help him along. Checking to see if his homework is done but he doesn't even want to try. He just wants to be on electronics all the time and I can't seem to pull him off without it ending and huge blowouts. At this point he's in six grade and has two D's and a C. Very smart kid just really stubborn and not open to listening to advice from anyone. The teachers are bending over backwards to give him second chances but he won't bother to turn in revised work etc. He does some homework willingly but can't really keep on top of all that he is being asked to do at school. Any other parents just throw in the towel and let the kid suffer the consequences? I'm exhausted trying to help and he just doesn't care. [/quote]
