[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. But, you need to be organized and have a strategy in place to make your kids succeed for the entire school year.  Work on their organizational and executive functioning skills from the get-go.

No kid who is doing well in academics and ECs in school/college and has his life on track, gets into the problematic depression and anger spiral. Even if they are sad, it is manageable. [/quote]

Disabilities that make kids vulnerable to the chaos that happens in schools at the end of the year, are not because their parents didn't plan and strategize.

If your kid had good executive functioning and his life "on track", it's because his or her disabilities impact them differently, not because you are a superior parent.

If your kid hasn't experienced "problematic depression", it's because that isn't their particular genetics.
