[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 591864, member: 11791"] Noticed this on a re-read of the thread... and it isn't uncommon. Somehow, school and/or medical communities understand when you "cannot" do something... you cannot hear, or see, or walk, or whatever. Black and white, on or off. But... so many kids actually CAN do a whole lot of things... - in ideal situations - until they burn out from the effort of working to that level - except when tired, hungry, frustrated or something else is out of whack in their day - etc. Just because they CAN, doesn't mean that when they CANNOT, it's because they "will not" - but that is the assumtion out there. I'm wondering if that is a factor? Is there a pattern to her challenges? Do you keep a journal/log? [/QUOTE]
