[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 532105"] I agree with Terry. Your difficult child needed help to do those assignments because apparently she struggles with that kind of task. Now, she's running out of time and is feeling so overwhelmed (do something she can't do alone + only a few days to do ALL of it) that she's shutting down. difficult child 1 has done the same thing when the school refused to acknowledge he had the skill deficit and needed help but then punishing him if he didn't do it. His anxiety got in the way. Does she have an IEP? If not, now you know of one skill area she needs help with .... when it's assigned, not when the school year ends. Poor kid. I can only imagine the pressure she's feeling and the internal (and external) struggles she's having to deal with. [/QUOTE]
