[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 503122, member: 11847"] Malika, don't take it the wrong way. But my answer to it would have been something like: "we all work very hard in the family and so should you. I am very proud of you. Don't give up, keep working hard and you will keep making lots of progress". The day he works very hard and does NOT make progress, than you need accomodations. Partner is advance academically and things just come easy to him. I want him to have work ethic: I signed him up for afterschool tutoring in which he works at 1st grade level (instead of Kindergarten). This way he gets to experience what a challenge is. I know there is a limit to that logic. Sometimes kids will keep it together and still get burned out. But, maybe, show him that his hard work is teaching him a valuable lesson that he will keep for life. [/QUOTE]
