Wendy,
Does difficult child have an IEP. I should know but as you said, you don't come here often.
I can give you TONS of info on this particular problem. Ex-difficult child had an IEP but it was to protect him legally, not get help academically. He did not have academic problems per se--he just never did the work, which of course, becomes a problem in itself. He was also very angry about school, resistened help and interventions, etc.
PM me or post here if you like.
