[quote=Anonymous]I think you validate the frustration without agreeing entirely. You explain what advice you received and why you made the choice you did. You acknowlwdge that things were harder for him than for some other kids. You also don't agree that he's totally helpless and can't control it. Limiting screen time is actually recommended for kids with ADHD, and not as punishment. If you have been saying or insinuating that he's lazy or blaming him, or if you've said things like "just do your work," or "you just need to work harder, " or the like, you apologize. But you don't agree that kids with ADHD are just off the hook for getting homework done -- they need different strategies, and maybe things are harder, but they still have to work on those things.
