[quote=Anonymous]And here's yet another vote for a neuropsych test. Your son is already 12. By that time our son had been tested at least 3 times (once every three years) and the diagnoses kept changing. Sometimes it was ADHD, sometimes exec. functioning problems, sometimes depression, sometimes anxiety. Your son could even have simple eye problems that make it difficult for him to read. You really owe this to him to get a thorough NT workup done on him. There are many many reasons for this kind of behavior that could be neurological and not simple laziness which is what I am reading into your post. Please do that before you try military schools. You may get an eye-opening (pun) result. If you don't, then yes consider boarding schools. I was most impressed with Fork Union Military School when we toured.[/quote]
