[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 242622, member: 3208"] My younger dtr (17 now) has emotional issues which keep her from working up to her intellectual capabilities. She was an "A" student in middle school--she worked relentlessly, mostly as a coping mechanism to deal with her chaotic home life. She has struggled in high school because she quit using school to mask her problems. She is labeled "emotionally disturbed" for her IEP and she has great acommodations. However, in the end it is up to her to succeed or not. She is doing much better this year (12th grade) but it is because she wants to, not because someone else is motivating her. In fact, I say next to nothing to her about schoolwork. She has to be the one invested in doing well or even just passing--it is up to her. Jane [/QUOTE]
