[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3rd grader is pretty bored..and does not want to do it. Says it's too long; and this is just week 1. He keeps switching to video games/ youtube....or sends chats to the other kids. Not sure how he will do 8:30am-3:00pm...[/quote]

And you let this happen? I'm the PPPP who everyone said was mean when I accused parents of not setting/enforcing exceptions and trying to be their kids friends. Read the passive voice in this post about the choices they are permitting this 8 year old to make and tell me this isn't partly a parenting issue.[/quote]

You are ridiculous if you think a patent should be blamed for a kid not having enough executive function to sit through virtual boredom when escape is only a click away.  Many kids this age can manage it; some can’t.

Clearly, Ms. Judgmental does not have an ADHD child.[/quote]

NP. I have a kid with moderate to severe combined ADHD. I find it totally valid to blame a parent for letting a child miss school and run amok. I have not had issues getting my child to sit for every and all lessons, even though to be sure he is fidgety during most and sometimes not the happiest camper to be doing it.[/quote]
