[QUOTE="Kathrine, post: 63349, member: 568"] Thanks for all the advice. Marguerite, my husband misunderstands me so much. I don't think he knows the first thing about ADHD. He keeps thinking I'm saying that difficult child is dumb or can't do the work, or is slow or something. I have to constantly correct him about what I'm saying. difficult child is smart, and the only reason he can't do the work is because he's frustrated. husband says he won't do the work because he hates math. I say he hates math because he can't focus and concentrate long enough to finish it. Every kid dislikes doing math to some degree, but when they know they have to do it, they can do it. When you offer them a reward they can do it. but not difficult child. If his teacher tells him to finish his work or he'll have to stay in at recess, he says "I don't want recess anyway." [/QUOTE]
