[quote=Anonymous]Has he had executive function training? My kid did over last summer, and it didn't help a bit until we worked with him every_single_school night this year. He's almost up to working on his own now. Giving up on something basic like appropriate-level homework is not an option. DH and I break up who is helping him study for what, as needed. Telling us "I have no homework" is not an option; we look at everything, help organize his notebooks and binders if needed, and walk through everything together keep the habits alive, and it is working. He is feeling more confident in his abilities and his homework and test scores show definite improvement. I have inattentive ADHD and the habits I cultivated in college are now working for my kid. It is painful at the start, but once you find a system and *stick with it*, it can work. It is the sticking with it that is the hardest part.[/quote]
