[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 19250, member: 439"] you can't "punish" what they can't control. You can try and teach coping skills. I agree that you must concentrate on one or two areas at a time. For us it's homework (it's ALWAYS homework). Hearing an assignment, bringing home the things to do the assignment, doing the assignment, getting it back into the bookbag, and turning it in - is just too many steps. We've had "failures" at every point in the process. We continue to work on strategies to help with success (he's had five weeks now with every assignment turned in!!!!). And strategies need to be flexible - what works this week may not work next week. Good luck - if there was a "magic" pill or strategy, all of our lives would be so much easier!!!! [/QUOTE]
