[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see some of what you are all saying due to the pandemic. I was just telling my husband this morning that I'm glad my DS chose to go back to school four days a week because he would literally lose his nose if it wasn't attached to his face. He needs practice getting up and out and having a full day of things to juggle, including where his stuff is, his water bottle, trumpet etc. It's good for him because it would be much worse transition to college if he didn't get back into the swing of things. He's super smart, book smart, but not so much on the common sense (says mom of a son who drove all over town this morning looking for his hydro flask - and didn't find it.).  [/quote]

I often hear similar stories from moms of sons. Have you read about executive functioning? He could have deficits in that area.

Consider Thinking Organized's "Next Stop College" program. It is not life changing, but gives tips, that children might not want to hear from their parents.
