[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 254240, member: 3419"] [I]His Lang Arts teacher said that when he actually DOES the work, he is very good. But it's often late. He had an essay that was due last Thursday. He finally turned it in yesterday. She said it was an "A" paper, but because it was late she has to mark it down. And yesterday I found a stapled packet of work that was incomplete that she'd given back to him to re-do. He hadn't touched it yet. [/I] Boy, does THAT sound familiar! My next meeting is Wednesday with the school psychologist and RSP teacher. The S/L specialist has also been invited, though she's only there twice a week. I'm going to ask about auditory and visual processing, language pragmatics, as well as the usual cognitive and psycho-social tests. I'll be giving their list of tests to the neuropsychologist to review to make sure there is no overlap, and then we'll be off and running. Very good. Good luck. [I]husband went with me, and it was very good to have his support. He made some good comments and suggestions and was helpful in explaining his observations of difficult child 1's behaviors. I think he's finally understanding that it's not just a parenting issue here... and that difficult child 1 really IS a good kid who tries hard, but who is also his own worst enemy because of the way he's wired.[/I] Whew! I love it when DHs get on the same page. :) __________________ [/QUOTE]
