[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 150354, member: 1991"] The ironic thing, Susie, is difficult child 3 has the skills himself to design a computer program. He may well do it when he is older. Who else understands the problem so well? I finally checked out our game supply and found the word game I thought might be good - Scattergories. I think I'll dig it out tomorrow and maybe organise a game with difficult child 3 and perhaps a couple of neighbourhood kids. Alternatively, the speech pathologist's genius (and NOT Aspie) daughter. She's younger than difficult child 3 but has an amazing vocabulary, as well as a quick mind. She will give difficult child 3 someone sharp to pit himself against. Then after that, difficult child 3 can give her the maths coaching lesson her mother wants her to have. I might call the mum tomorrow and try to set it up over the weekend. So much to do, so little time... I finally had a chance to look at his work - tomorrow morning he and I are going to sit down and go through it all, while I make sure he has properly answered everything. He has one more week's worth of worksheets on newspapers, and then it's short stories which his teacher thinks will be easier for him. I hope so - he has to catch up in his other subjects.
