[QUOTE="Adrift, post: 118408, member: 2158"] My difficult child does not have a diagnosis and is not on medication. At the moment he's doing much better and could almost be described as a easy child so I realize this may not work at all for some people but we've done two things that have worked well for him. 1. When he was really little, in the first grade. We paid him to do his homework. I'm embarrassed to admit it now but we said mom and dad have a job and get paid, your homework is your job. We only had to pay him until the fourth grade, then it became automatic. He's in middle school now and it makes him crazy when he can't get his homework done, even if he hates it. 2. We say no screens after supper until the homework is done. Again, it works for us...not all the time but mostly. [/QUOTE]
