[QUOTE="clive, post: 321662, member: 5132"] I posted a reply earlier today, but it hasn't appeared--not sure what the deal is there, but here's another, in response to some remarks: She IS currently attending school, but with about 4 weeks left, has been dropped from two of the classes due to poor attendance. Her explanation of this is that she goes, and at some point loses all concentration, and feels it's useless to be there anymore, so she leaves at breaktime, or between classes. The teachers have given her many chances, she is in attendance violation for all classes--as I said, only one has dropped her--the other she reached a mutual understanding with the instructor to drop, because she felt she was in over her head with the subject matter of that particular class, with no hope of passing. All of her teachers know she's a bright kid, and when she's there, and does the work, she does great. But for some reason, she can't stay on task. We've been through all the disciplinary measures, consequences, etc, and nothing phases her. Now she is an 18 year old young lady living outside the home, responsible for herself. But we would like to help her, if she has legitimate obstacle to learning and staying on task. The natural supplement idea sounds good, I'll check it out. Thanks everyone, I hope this gets posted!
