[quote=Anonymous]The number of people who act like it's normal for an early teen to not be able to tell time and manage time and show up when they're supposed to show up somewhere is always astonishing to me. This is not normal. He's 13 not 7. Your particular child is apparently not mature enough to go to the mall independently on a day when he has other commitments. Doing things like that is a privilege and not an entitlement. Either get him help for his ADHD or executive functioning or whatever the issue is or make it not fun for him to blow you off. Funny how kids seem to manage to figure things out when it's something they want to be doing.[/quote]
