[quote=Anonymous]My child is around the same age and has exactly those issues.  Does your ds have a 504 plan that addresses the issues with writing?  My child can have the assignment modified so that less writing is required.  A scribe can be used for other subjects, but not for writing.  Is your son writing by hand or typing?  Typing can be a good solution when writing by hand is physically difficult.  Does he have access to a voice-to-text app?  That can help too.  Can he explain why he doesn't want to make the changes?  As in, the idea of physically having to rewrite a paragraph is overwhelming or he disagrees that the content is lacking or confusing?  My child has a very short temper when her mind is racing and I can't keep up what she's trying to communicate.  If his diagnosis is still new, especially if he doesn't have a 504, then no, I wouldn't just have him deal with the consequences as though he's just being difficult.  His brain doesn't naturally work in the way he's being asked to use it.[/quote]
