[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a kid really has impulsivity issues, not much will help except medication. No incentives or consequences. Kids need a lot more recess than they get. [/quote] This. It's really bad by MS and HS. Some of these kids cannot focus and it's caused them to miss huge chunks of material. Many read on a K-3 level and are still counting on their fingers. The ones who have the academic chops are also not performing as well as they should. Some of them could handle Honors level classes but aren't doing well because parents refuse to address the issue, so instead they play around in class and get in trouble. If you look at which kids are chronically in trouble in grades 7-12 it tracks very closely with the ones who have problems with impulsivity.[/quote] And, everyone thinks that medication is the only answer. Scary.[/quote]
