my son thinks he isn't normal and needs to be treated differently
My son thinks he is not normal, and needs to be treated differently at school and at home. It seems he thinks everyone needs to make exception. Yes, he needs reminders, but he is almost 11 and needs to get over being prompted to do everything, step 1, step 2, step, 3, be reminded to complete step 1... over and over again until he feels like complying. I know he has ADHD, but he needs to understand that he needs to take responsibility for his own behaviors, such as getting himself to school on time. I always make sure he gets out the door on time, but I could use some help on his part as well. This goes for homework, cleaning his room....I end up going to war with him over things like getting dressed for school at not a snail's pace.
