[quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine that he is missing this night of ski club. However, going forward, I would not have this as a consequence for not doing school work. It is important for kids with ADHD to get exercise and have things that they excel at. Ski club can be both for your son, which will be important for getting him through HS. As to missing assignments, does your son have an IEP with a case manager? If so, do they have check-ins? If not, then perhaps have a set time once a week to check in with your son on his assignments. At a certain point, we need to let our kids struggle and even fail. Let them experience the actual consequences of their actions or lack of actions with a lower grade. It won't be the end of the world. [/quote]
