OP,

You have to separate normal teen fashion choices and rebellion from possible executive dysfunction or learning disabilities.

Have you considered ADHD? It's very hard for such kids to sleep well, and get themselves organized. This was a constant battle with my severely ADHD teen, particularly in high school when first period starts so horribly early. He's in college now and doing well, because he purposefully picked classes that start at a reasonable time in the morning, and he has extended time accommodations for his inattentive ADHD through the college's disability office.

Thanks so much for caring and sharing.  He has adhd - ‘moderate’.  Psychologist recommended to identify meds but we opted not to. I explained above why…. He has all 504 accommodations - more breaks, seat in front, longer time for testing….

I actually think that it was poor nutrition (due to food neofobia) that led to brain development issues and then adhd. [/quote]
