[QUOTE="topsyturvy, post: 199265, member: 6005"] First I would like to say that I am new to the board and I look forward to getting to know everyone and learning more about how to help my son. My son was diagnosed with ADHD, ODD and anxiety disorder when he was 5. We have had a constant struggle with him especially at school. He is basically in trouble at school, I have spent more time meeting with his teachers then I have not. Last year we tried homeschooling and for the most part it worked except for the fact that my husband thought that he needed to be in school. So this year we enrolled him back in school. We live in a smaller town so it is a small school. He has an awesome teacher and she knows that he has ADHD and she is working with him. But when we had his parent/teacher conference, which I made sure that my husband went to so that he could hear from the teacher what I have heard every year. Well when we sat down she first said that he is a very polite little boy but he is just not applying himself in school and that he is very capable of doing the work that is presented to him, which he is totally capable of. On his mid-quarter report he had 3 D's and we discussed a plan that we currently have in place. But it seems that with all the extra work that we have put in his math grade is continuing to fall because he just slops down an answer just to be done and he does know the answer cause both the teacher and us can ask him the question and he will give the answer without batting an eyelash. At this point his grade will be an F on his report card for his Math. I really don't know what to do anymore. I don't know what more we can do other then let him face the consequences of him not doing his work. We have tried everything. We ground, we give reward for positive things, we've tried not grounding. We have tried everything but nothing seems to be sinking in and I am just beyond frustrated. I appreciate any ideas or thoughts because at this point I feel like a total and complete failure. HELP!!!:anxious::whiteflag: [/QUOTE]
