[QUOTE="Crazy-Steph, post: 43412, member: 3729"] I may try making a supply kit for each class next year. My difficult child cannot keep up with things either. I even tried to make sure that his bag was supplied each night. But he would still tell the teacher he "forgot" his pencil in his locker. Or borrow paper from a neighbor because he drew on all of his. I think that the teacher could simply tell the other kids that his mother made a pack for him because she didn't want him borrowing from the other kids. If that is still too embarassing for the difficult child, then they should remember their own supplies! We pretty much did the tough love this year and our son is failing. Last six weeks, he only had two grades in Science that were not zeroes, and both of those were tests. He made a 30 on one and a 94 on the other. Does he know the material? I would say so. He just chooses not to turn anything in. Oh well. Maybe if he stays behind a year he will realize that he has to have some self motivation. Maybe not.
