[quote=Anonymous]i assume you did a full neurophych evaluation since you know his IQ... we don't actually try to know the IQ it is part of a doctor's report. I get it when I see my kids IQ and then see how he performs it is clear that HE IS FRUSTRATED. He knows he is smarter but does not know how to tap the knowledge.

I am assuming you have an IEP since this is in the SN forum.

Does he have rigidity issues? Mine do, OCPT (Obsessive Compulsive Personality Type)

I have a set time for homework and a tutor so the fight does not destroy our relationship.

The set time is funny, at first it was a struggle but with his OC part of his PT, 2 years later if something interrupts his homework time he freaks out.

I would look into CBT, to work on lowering the frustration threshold and tools to manage that feeling. Imagine trying to do everything on your worst PMS day or after you have big fight with your spouse... your brain just does not work, it is irrational.

You need to approach this with compassion, I know this is hard for you but you need to do 20 minutes. Instead of if you don't do 20 minutes I am taking the phone away.

Also ... what grade, are we talking 5th grade, 8th, 12th?

(Looks like some General Parenting folk stumbled on the SN forum for Recent Topics, just ignore those posts or report them, it's like asking a doctor to be your lawyer, it's not that they are as ignorant as they sound... it's not the area of expertise, they probably don't even know this is a SN post... .)[/quote]
