[quote=Anonymous]As a kid who was bored in school, I sympathize with my kid who is bored at school. Combination of the (WTF PP) "destructive" behavior from ADHD, and previous comprehension of the materials or topic. My kid does what I did -- reads his novel under his desk. He gets yelled at for it occasionally, as did I. And yes, he'll miss opportunities sometimes if he doesn't try hard enough, but that's a lesson I want him to learn, too. It isn't all about being smart, and I can only help so far in getting him to try harder without completely taking over. There are classes that are really great and engaging and he'll engage with those, and be excited about learning but it is so hard to have 100% of those classes all the time, even in a GT program.[/quote]
