[quote=Anonymous]We can’t get this kid to engage with any school activities. He plays soccer on a low key club team that practices twice a week but he’s not interested in trying out for HS soccer (too competitive, “I’ll never make it”), can’t get him interested in no cut sports (he’s athletic but has an excuse for everything we suggest), not interested in any clubs for various reasons. He has ADHD and a touch of anxiety and has always been a kid that needs some downtime. He’s getting great grades in tough classes but he has to really work for it. He leaves the house at 6:55 AM, gets home at 4 PM. Relaxes for a couple hours, family dinner around 6, homework around 7 -9. If he’s done earlier he’ll play some video games or watch a show with us. He’s also teaching himself guitar. He has a job lined up for summer. He has good friends that he hangs out with on the weekends. He’s a good kid but I worry about 1) him not having a full/connected HS experience and 2)huge gap in college applications. What does DCUM think?[/quote]
