[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 291270, member: 3419"] Welcome back, IMF. You are certainly up to your ears. The messes and TV certainly sound familiar! Just curious ... why can't you get your son to wash the dishes? I had a friend splice our TV cord and put an appliance plug on it, and when I want the TV and games to go off, I unplug it. When difficult child does his chores (yes, dishes) then he gets the cord back. Lots of people on this board use the expression "give to get." This could be one example. In reg to driving, what about making up a list of driving questions and having your son write or type the answers? It will drive home the point (excuse the expression) about how important it is to learn to read. I motivated my son when he was younger, by only allowing him candy at the store if he could read the entire lable. That meant "monosodium glutamate," LOL! Hey, a lot of it is about motivation. Just a thought. What were the correct diagnosis's for your son? He seems to have an Learning Disability (LD) but I don't know what kind. Can you type a profile at the bottom for people like me who have short memories? :) Thanks. [/QUOTE]
