[quote=Anonymous]I have two kids with ADHD, one who is also autistic. The AuDHD child needs very visible structure and routine. He needs everyone to be doing the same thing at the same time and for the requirements of each assignment to be very clear. Progressive schools didn't work for him. The ADHD only child thrives when he's given the opportunity to make choices. He will do the bare minimum when given explicit instructions but will go above and beyond when he feels like doing so is his choice. He is doing great at a progressive school and would feel stifled at his brother's more traditional school. (There's still dedicated time for each subject. I don't know any K12 school where students can choose not to do a particular subject.)[/quote]
