These are ADULTS.  It’s way past time to stop this nonsense.  I didn’t check my kids’ portals when they were in high school.  If your college aged adult cannot navigate this on their own, they probably aren’t ready for college.

Don't mean to be snarky. But you have no clue what it's like to have an ADHD boy. [/quote]

I have TWO ADHD boys.  I do know what it’s like.  I also know that you aren’t helping by micromanaging his life. Do you plan to help him at work one day?  You have to let him figure it out.  He will struggle.  Mistakes will happen.  And he’ll learn from those mistakes.  [/quote]

I’m sure you never did anything to guide your kids. And amazingly they turned out perfect!

My parents didn’t “micromanage” or even guide my adhd brother and he failed as an adult. Did not learn from his mistakes.

So bully for your perfect kids. I will continue to remind my kid to look at his email. His lack of doing that earlier this year has already cost him and us dearly. [/quote]
