[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 503971, member: 1722"] My difficult child is rather episodic but she had a real problem with the rigors of homework in the younger grades. She wasn't assigned a huge workload but had trouble keeping up with the workload and was (and sometimes still is) exhausted at the end of the school day. She had a twofold issue: first, she no trouble forming letters/numbers but the physical process of writing was hard on her due to her hyper mobile joints in her hands/arms/neck/torso. She just couldn't do any more writing at the end of the day. The second thing (and we hit on this much later) is that she was plain done in due to sensory overload. This school year in particular has been much more successful at home because she now has three days of physical activity within an hour of school dismissal that allows her to process some of this overload. So... I would look for a physical reason such as low muscle tone & hyper mobility as well as possible sensory integration problems. [/QUOTE]
