[quote=Anonymous]I guess the question is whether you would intervene for a kid without ADHD. It sounds like your child got appropriate supports, but didn't do the work necessary to receive a passing grade. She was even given an extra opportunity and chose not to take advantage of it. Also, your description of her "cursing out the teacher" and pitching a temper tantrum when you take her phone away suggests you've got bigger problems on your hand. You need to demonstrate that actions have consequences, and figure out who the adult in this relationship is. The other point is this - do you want her to move onto the next level of science and math, knowing that she just barely passed this year. None of this is setting her up for success. Not the intervening with the teacher. Not giving into her temper tantrums. Not passing her along when she hasn't mastered the material. [/quote]
