[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the last PP completely. This is special forces boot camp --- and ADHD kids don't get to choose to attend and there are very few realistic alternatives. It feels kind of like a nightmare. We moved DS to a small private to help with this. But it is still a mainstream school and expectations are fairly similar to a public school. The one improvement - and I think this is fairly big - is that there are only three teachers with three different systems. And those teachers are the teachers for the next two years as well. So, I'm hoping that the next few years will be easier b/c we have already figured out their systems (assuming they don't leave!). My DS with ADHD is only twelve and in sixth grade. I guess I was hoping HS would be better. But from other posters with 14 year olds with the same problem, it doesn't seem like it will get better anytime soon. Ugh. I guess for HS I should look for a school that has one system that all the teachers use. [i]Why can't schools just require this of teachers? It would make such a difference for all of these kids who have EF differences? Why confine them to misery when the teachers could just adapt and make things so much better?[/i][/quote]
