[quote=Anonymous]What type of school was she at? We steered ADHD kid to smaller private school so there was more accountability. There are those that say they are not going to pay because they do not know if they are going to be successful - we did the reverse in paying in order to be successful. I agree with others to go pack up the dorm and bring your DD home and get an appt with mental health provider. Sit down in a way that there is no shame - no blame - but a conversation about a path forward. Maybe take an art class in the spring - along with getting a job as a lifeguard. I like lifeguarding as it forces accountability for exercise and puts your child in an environment where they are not staying out all night after the restaurant close - but this is only my opinion. Good luck to you and your family.[/quote]
