Have you ever thought of this?: Learning to tolerate boredom is a critical life skill that all kids need to learn, but particularly kids with ADHD. ryanwexelblatt
: “My son is in 8th grade and was diagnosed this year with ADHD inattentive type. He tunes out in class and refuses to participate, says it is because he finds the work boring and pointless. His Special Ed teacher, who he is in class with every day, used to try to ‘motivate’ him by offering special rewards or by shaming him . Not surprisingly, none of this works. So they now just let him sit there and not participate.
He has never, ever been the kind of kid to ask for help or talk to his teachers when he’s having problems. Any advice? Thanks!”: “I don’t think the bigger issue is your son’s difficulty with self-advocacy, I think it is his lack of resiliency is getting through non-preferred tasks. Learning to tolerate boredom is a critical life skill that all kids need to learn, but particularly kids with ADHD.
