[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get him an executive coach.[/quote] He is very resistant to things like this so while I have thought about it I think it will do more harm than good to his self esteem. I [b]also don't really think its EF, but instead its him messing around too much. [/b]He isn't lazy and is very motivated with his sport and fitness but he wants constant breaks in between school, practice, etc and then is tired. (of course). He needs to start earlier I just don't know how much I should intervene. I do agree with PP that an F gives me the right but he will likely still push back. I will add that he has moments of very hard work and self advocating with the teacher and when I meddle I feel like it upsets his motivation and he retreats. Thats where I am struggling with how to handle.[/quote] But the ability to stay focused on a task is itself EF! His inability to do that indicates an EF problem.[/quote]
