have you had him tested for add / adhd - have you had his eyes and hearing examined - sometimes kids lose interest becuase they fall behind - they cant hear the teacher or see the board so they just start to give up. alternatively there is the add/adhd question - i have a 13 year old who was impossible about doing any school work without huge arguments, bribes etc. he was tested in grade 2 and was questionable for attention problems. finally in grade 6 we had him retested and he was put on meds for concentration - helped a lot - and i think it made him more confident in his school work so he was willing to get it done. also, what type of learner is your son, some kids just cant sit down and read a chapter - i mean that would make me crazy too. between you and school resources determine what type of learner he is - does he need more visual or hands on type learning. the way information is presented to him may make all the difference - there are so many options - my son got a laptop for school in grade 7 and it has been a lifesaver -the programs help him learn they way his brain needs to instead of forcing him to get with the flow. talk to you doctor if you have nto already and talk to the school - you have to advocate for your child and dont let them turn you away there are a world of optoins out there for him.
