[quote=Anonymous]Op, you are similar to our situation.  My dd is very bright, but has adhd combined, and trying to do homework is so difficult sometimes, it is hard to put into words.  Dd has her 2nd grade report due on Tuesday, and dh is home with her today trying to get her to work on it.  Instead of working on it, she runs through the house, hides in the bathroom, and tries repeatedly to turn the tv on.  We have had supports this year, and have not medicated yet (we just got the official diagnosis this month).  Her cogat is just below cutoff, and a wisc we had done as part of her neoropsych testing shows a wide range.  Superior in some, average in others.  We are not going to do aap.  We are happy with her base school, and I believe class sizes and homework would increase for her.  Plus she really likes her friends in her school now.  I am sure some of them will go onto aap, but that is good for her.  Because of her attention issues, she feels negatively towards school.   I think aap would just make her dislike school even more.[/quote]
