[QUOTE="Sister's Keeper, post: 699168, member: 20051"] You said something interesting, that caught my eye. That he didn't like writing and didn't want the other kids to see his work. That was the same with my youngest. She was born addicted and has some fine motor delays. She didn't think her work was as good as some of the other kids, so she didn't want to do it. Of course, her answer to everything is cry. (Speech delays, too) But it is interesting that he is very good at reading and loves to read aloud. This is my kid, she can tell you all her letter, number, colors, etc (She's only 4) but she hated it when it came to crafts and coloring and writing. We had an advantage, though, because we knew what we might be facing since birth, so we started earlier. We have her, mostly, caught up at this point. I don't know if anyone has suggested this to you, but we were told to do play at home that worked on her fine motor skills. Coloring, playing with clay, (gawd I hate Playdoh) Lego (I hate them, too LOL) different crafts using scissors. Craft kits, etc. Another thing, and, again, forgive me if you have tried this, but have you tried a reward system? I have a friend whose son had behavioral problems in school (High-Functioning Autism (HFA) and ADHD) and her reward was if he didn't have any "red" days (they use green, yellow, red here for days) all week they would go to Golden Corral for dinner on Friday night (the kid loves that place) I'm not saying that, particularly, but maybe something on a daily basis that is his "currency?"
