[quote=Anonymous]Please don't do this, because: 1. It's rude to the team, and you should know this even if you're the most clueless, un-athletic person in the world. 2. Many children, even those without diagnosed ADHD, don't have the executive functioning skills to successfully time manage. It comes with brain maturity and each individual matures at his or her own rate. If your child, despite his obvious desire to be on time, cannot manage it by himself, it's cruel to let him fail. I say this because my child has ADHD, struggles with time management, and gets extraordinarily stressed out when he's late. Yet he needs help to be on time. If we don't help him, it's like telling a near-sighted person to read a sign at a distance without glasses - useless and unkind. 3. Buy a Time Timer, and if he's does start getting ready at a certain time, remind him. Do you have issues with time management yourself? [/quote]
