[quote=Anonymous]OP - Think hard about why your son is using homework to piss you off, and also about why he has decided to fail rather than try. Therein lies your answer. I think your problem may be more serious than "take away his phone." When my son was younger and executive function was a challenge, I monitored like a hawk. Never yelled about results, but insisted on full cooperation with all discussions about due dates and the electronic grade book. We forced him to be organized through daily checkins with us re his electronic planner. It was intense and unpleasant at first but less so as time went on. At least with our child, we found that finding ways for him to experience success was a better strategy than punishing failure.[/quote]
