[quote=Anonymous]Yes, he definitely has attention issues (good catch) and tried a low-dose stimulant for a few months before deciding he didn't like how it felt. Since a lot of his extended family has addiction issues, I decided to just be grateful he doesn't like to "take drugs." Seriously, stimulants have a high potential for abuse. And, unfortunately his school does not allow me to know when assignments are late, missing entirely, or bombed. This is a deliberate choice intended to foster student accountability and maturity, but it is not a great match for my son. Grades have to fall below a B to generate a message home from the teachers. Despite how unappealing that might sound, it's a rigorous and great school (which I won't name), and my son is happy there. Re: first poster. I do not work well with this kid, who I love dearly. And that's why I'd be willing to pay someone else![/quote]
