[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 197947, member: 3704"] Andy, I don't know that I have good suggestions for this problem... Sigh... Our difficult child is now a senior in high school, and we have fought this battle the entire way through his school life - but the last few years I have really backed off. I honestly don't think that parents can create the motivation for our difficult child's , that has to come from them. I have basically worked closely with the school and the teachers and been available when needed. I do remind him of deadlines and we keep them listed and posted on the frig.... But most importantly, I have reminded myself that not all folks are "into" academics and that there can be an occupational life without a higher education. It's not as easy, and it probably won't pay as well, but it may be closer to what our difficult child wants and can handle... I'm sending prayers your way for some more peaceful times... [/QUOTE]
