probation for her scholarship program. Her gpa this past quarter was a 2.1. She doesn't even seemed phased. It's so sad, she is going to end up throwing away a full tuition scholarship to a great university.
We just got her state testing results. She scored advanced in three areas and at the high end of proficient in the other two areas. She is so capable but so not putting forth any effort.
I truly wish I knew why she doesn't do any work. Part of it, I think, is her depression. Part of it may be she is such a perfectionist. I think sometimes she feels if she can't be perfect why try. I remember when she was little and would rip up something she had written if it wasn't perfect. Sometimes I think there is some Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) stuff and anxiety going on too. (She always has to check which silverware she gets-no spots allowed-same with glasses and plates)
Part of it could be laziness-she is lazy (but is that due to the depression?) Part of it is typical teen stuff.
I wish I knew exactly what was going on so I could help more. It is so frustrating. She has so many plans for her future, including college, yet it is all too far away for her to see what she is doing. Sigh.
