[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 635456, member: 15832"] Hi Lil. I feel your pain. I just KNOW that you'll set your alarm to make sure he's up. And if u do, you won't be alone. My son lost his job for being late twice a week after he started. He called the manager and begged for his job back, put an action plan in place we suggested that involved setting two alarms, sent us a text to say he was up (or we would call him to make sure) . We did this for several weeks. Also had him text his schedule to us. We gradually let go of the control and he is now apparently getting himself to work and on time for the past 6 months. Barring substance abuse and mental health issues, I think a lot of our difficult child 's have weak executive function skills and do better with some direction (that is, if they're in a place that they are willing to take advice and direction).
