If she’s habitually late, she could have inattentive ADHD and need medication for that. Have you explored whether her issues are more than the usual teen moods? You can consult a reputable psychologist. It’s hard to go through childhood with untreated disorders... [/quote]

Wow, the armchair DX of ADHD came so quickly this time.

Well done! You all never fail me.[/quote]

You dismiss it. But it was my first thought too. Time blindness is often one of the hardest aspects of ADHD to parent. [/quote]

NP here, and this was my first thought, too, because I have ADHD. Time blindness suuuuucks and it makes you feel like a deficient, terrible human being. 100% possible this kid doesn't have it, because we have such limited information (although she's also apparently very "high maintenance" in general). But also not going to kill anyone to consider it. Girls are much more likely to slip under the radar with it, even nowadays. [/quote]
