[quote=Anonymous]My ADHD son was a C/D student in 8th grade, and we had the same worries as you. I could have written your post. Fast forward, he is now earning a B-average in a rigorous program and carrying a load of meaningful extracurriculars. Is he a straight A student? No. Does he still struggle mightily with focus, productivity, motivation, and executive functioning? Yes. But he has matured since 8th grade is poised to graduate and go on to a our-year college. Give it some time--they do grow up. And also, as others have said, get involved. Help him keep track of assignments. Help him establish routines. Over time, they start to internalize it (somewhat).
