[quote=Anonymous]So I grew up with ADD in the '80's and '90's and this was a major, major issue for me. In fact I still struggle with it in my professional life (although I am relatively succesful). I do think that taking away distractions and breaking a project into small steps---even for a 1 -page paper, helps so that your child can feel that they achieved some milestones. I wish there were an easier answer. I ended up staying up very late and writing stuff at the last minute a lot. Luckily I was still able to get good grades and go to a good liberal arts school and get by, but I know I could have done better if I had been better organized. Be aware that your son is probably pretty frustrated iwth himself too. Try to get at what really motivates him. [/quote]
