[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A very similar dynamic for me and my now sophomore in HS. First, idk if yours have any advanced classes, I suggested mine dropped most of his and our lives became much easier. Probably not the answer you want to hear but I thought I’d share. Second, we make a to do list on the whiteboard. Yes sometimes we BOTH miss assignments! Some teachers aren’t very organized themselves. It’s ok to catch up sometimes. Third, he is making progress as he gets into the habit of doing homework. He was always the type that struggled with anything “hard” so now he is developing those muscles little by little. Finally, I second a thorough evaluation if you can afford it. best of luck to you and your DS. The key thing is to try and not be so upset with all this. The key for me was letting go of the fact that he won’t be all AP or honors. [/quote] Can you talk more about dropping honors and what that did? I’m concerned my freshman is overloaded [/quote]
