[QUOTE="klmno, post: 197825, member: 3699"] Sorry you're having to go through this- I think it's fairly common with our difficult child's and I wish I had a nickel for everytime I've been there done that. I'm working on strategies- I realized that the more I put it on my shoulders, the more stressed we both get. If I just walk away- not mad, but kind of like "well, if you decide that you want to do your homework and need help, let me know", he'll usually be back in 15 mins. Not always, but I hope this is helping things to de-escalate while still reminding him that it is his responsibility, not mine. I'm trying to figure out other strategies, because sometimes this one just doesn't work. Sometimes, the majority of the evening is consumed with difficult child's emotions or excessive talking or raging. Thank goodness it's in his iep that homework is reduced during periods of stress and makeup work gets done at school. He doesn't get full credit for it, but it's better than a zero. Can you get some help from the school in this regard? Is he on an IEP? [/QUOTE]
