[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on the description of your stepson as a teenager, as well as your statement about the difficulty he had filling out paperwork for an educational grant, it sounds like he may have ADD. His sporadic school record also supports this potential diagnosis. Has he ever been tested? Has he ever had any sort of educational testing, whether for ADD or to identify possible other learning disabilities? It is possible that he failed calculus three times because he is lazy, as you said, but it is also possible that something else is going on. I would see if your husband can talk to him about this. Many colleges have support services and would do this sort of testing in house. [/quote]

Actually he was on Ritalin as a child.  I think ADD is over-diagnosed though.  When he wants to he can focus really well - like research the next car he wants to buy or a new smartphone.

He failed pre-calculus three times because he was behind in math given that dropped out out school and missed the high school years.

I don't see him surviving military - he has never been pushed out of comfort level - he likes to sleep in and do what he wants to do.[/quote]
