[quote=Anonymous] I totally understand, OP! DH and I are probably a little too laid back in certain things, which is why he's getting bad grades in 4th grade right now. On the other hand, it's impossible to address all of our son's issues at once! Something has to give, and right now we've decided that elementary school grades are not the priority. We insist on teaching practical life skills, social and organizational guidance, sports and music, his native language (which apparently is not sinking in naturally like for our other kids), etc, etc. My friends must have thought that I was a terribly helicoptering mother when he was little and had a President's schedule of therapies. Now those who have stuck around see that he is unable to focus, unable to tie his shoelaces, still stumbles on his words, and they understand. Sort of. [/quote]
