[quote=Anonymous]My son is 13 and does not have ADHD and 100 percent self manages all school work and gets As and has activities he really cares about and does well in with zero supervision….and still I relate to a lot of your post. My point in saying this is some of this is being 13. They are contrary, oppositional, pushing boundaries, and in the end trying to assert independence in so many ways. My son lies about brushing his teeth, leaves his room a mess, eats snacks constantly, won’t brush his hair, and on and on. I don’t have advice really. I do think they need to experience consequences. So I try to let a lot of it go and pick battles.[/quote]
