I think there is way too much going on for "internet" advice.

I suggest you work with somebody from a company like this ... http://www.basseducationalservices.com/ to determine a college plan.

I personally have 2 ADHD kids and the amount of work they have to do to get a B/C is more than they should. By junior year I image there is a lot of burn out for these types of kids.

My son burned out in 8th grade and we seriously scaled back on our expectations for school. He takes all general classes with lots of support from school.

We plan to do a Gap year program and we also do not expect either child to graduate in 4 years. I don't think CC is always the answer, but I can't say for your daughter, it's too complicated. There are 4 year colleges that can help your daughter be successful.

Having ADHD and depression and anxiety and grieving her fathers death, I would seriously just be happy she is not hooking up with boys with bad intentions, drinking and doing drugs at this point. My best friend is dealing with a sophomore daughter who lost her father around the same time. D's/F's suck... BTDT... but it is not the end of the world. There are consequences and she will feel them when it is application time.

Good Luck![/quote]
