[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t she sit at home and do nothing? [/quote] +1. When you’re ADHD inattentive, you spend huge amounts of energy each day in order to stay focused. When she gets home, she probably just wants to relax and let her mind wander around a bit before she has to focus again to get homework done. Why are you forcing her to get engaged in something else instead of letting her take a break?[/quote] It’s OK to have higher expectations for our kids. A little downtime at home is fine; spending every day after school glued to screens for 3-4 hours with no activities is not fine. [/quote]
