[quote=Anonymous]I am trying hard not to share my emotions on this with him, as they are a mixture of so many things and I need to process more. My 10 year old is really doing poorly at school. His work is completely illegible, he seems to lack the capacity to do his work in a reasoned, intelligent, thoughtful way. Way back when, he had the WPPSI and it was high 138 combined. He learned to read early. I don't know if he is lazy, LD, ADHD, or what. He is not hyper, but can be a bit spacey. He is really into sports, and I am fearing we did him a disservice by allowing so much attention in that area. However, I don't want to take away sports as I think they serve a valuable purpose, as well. School came easily to me, not so easily to my very intelligent husband, so may be there is something there. Anyway, just a long, directionless vent. Any insights welcome! [/quote]
