[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My niece was exactly like OP's DD. She got C's and D's in high school and was not motivated. My brother sent her to Siberia to live with relatives for one year. When she came back to the US, she became a very good student, ended up at UVA, graduated and had a very good job. It is amazing what living in Siberia's harsh condition can do to your psyche. [/quote] Wow, what a helpful response! OP - have you tried sending your daughter to live with relatives in Siberia?[/quote] Np but clearly this poster is saying the kid needs some tough love and consequences. My child is similar and i (somewhat) agree. It’s a fine line between acknowledging ADHD and using it as an excuse. It’s not realistic to pay for ten years of college with an executive function coach in order to get a kid through college. Not financially and not what is the kid going to do when they get out?[/quote]
