[quote=Anonymous]Age 12. He hates the way the medicine subdues his personality. He likes being jovial funny one in the class. He is still managing B’s and some C’s in school but has no self-discipline. Just coasting through doing what he wants when he wants. Very poor self-control. Unfortunately we raised him with a laid-back unstructured and fairly permissive environment since he was generally a good kid. But now he seems more controlling and selfish and unwilling to work hard. Anyone have recommendations for convincing a 12-year-old to take medication or any other ideas for instilling discipline and self-control in a kid Who is defiant and uninterested in social activities like Boy Scouts and Sports? He is also one who doesn’t respond well to incentives or punishments. Says he just doesn’t care. He is highly intelligent, thus the decent grades with minimal effort. [/quote]
