[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I bend over backwards to make him care about school. He's been on Adderall for two years. He's just such a lazy student, ex. when he's supposed to be studying I'll catch him asleep in his room [b]or hiding a cell phone or iPad mini on front of a book. [/b]He's too old for "everyone did bad on that" twice a week. What even are the options for someone like my son? My oldest was a studious high school student and is pre-med, so I've never run into this.[/quote] How does he still have his cell phone or mini iPad. They are earned in our house. If you mess up or aren't holding your own, they get taken away. If that doesn't work, contact his teaches and tell him all his HW will now be printed out and written because he lost his computer. And every time he complains he needs his electronics, hand him a piece of paper with a chore on it. I guarantee things would change pretty quickly in your house. [/quote]
