[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 581956, member: 15812"] Nancy, i get the difference between being taught and absorbing. my brother, who is 48, was like that until about 30. Totally irresponsible. Very ADHD. Both of his kids are too. then he finally saw the light, got his degree, and has done really well with that stuff since then. i've really slowed down with trying to teach difficult child anything, even 'indirectly', without being asked. He won't do it and tends to get defensive. It's sad but I have to wait until he falls and then....only if he asks. i hope your daughter feels better soon. [/QUOTE]
