[quote=Anonymous]OP- people are mentioning ADHD because this is soooo....classic. There could be other reasons of course...anxiety, or since he is so bright, so existential angst or willfulness over the role of homework- possibly some defiance. If it's disorganization or forgetfulness, and your methods haven't done the trick, consider employing an executive functioning coach. It could be ADHD/executive functioning issues mixed with a little defiance (i.e. he will take organizational tips, but not from his parents). My son is like this- very smart but won't take tips from me. We employed a tutor who helps him both with the subject matter (algebra) but also the "how to succeed in school" stuff- show your work, take notes, find your mistakes, etc. It helps a lot. [/quote]
