[quote=Anonymous]I am a PP who said I was following closely. 
We have tried all of this with our DD. In 7th and 8th lots of hand holding and all the tools described here. It destroyed our relationship. We moved it to an EF tutor. We went through 3 who she hated or were not effective. School took on a lot of it last year and strategies were great but she didn't do the work and follow through the plan when she got home and spouse and I were exhausted and fighting all the time to manage it every night and other kid was neglected. We increased anxiety medication and changed ADHD meds 5 times and nothing made a massive difference. School got more involved in 8th but ultimately we moved her for 9th and we continue to have the same problems. And this is with all sorts of different consequences and structures over the years. 
All of that is to say that sometimes there isn't one magic solution (or even 5 magic solutions). This is so hard. I am sending hugs to OP and following closely. It's so difficult.  [/quote]
