[quote=Anonymous]OP- I would help your DD get through this rough patch, then I would set her up with an EF coach if it's affordable. I think that right now, your DD benefits from your presence because the work is truly overwhelming, but over time, this could become a crutch-- you would be serving as her pre-frontal cortex and emotional support, so she really doesn't have to think about the larger issues beyond academics. I have a DS with ADHD and highly gifted, lemme tell you, there is more to success and skill than smarts. We have learned over and over that developing executive function is "key" maybe "the key" to success in academics and life. Your DD needs someone (preferably a professional) to teach these skills while you start to ease back. [/quote]
