I apologize for the long post. My daughter is a 9th grader, and is currently only passing 2 classes with a C. She has 3 D's and 2 F's. She either doesn't do her homework/schoolwork, or if she does actually do it, it is done halfway and with little effort. She is not stupid. She stays after school 2-4 times a week to get help with work, yet the trend of not doing her work continues in all classes. She can be easily distracted, but she was tested for ADHD at 4 yrs old and we were told she didn't have it. She doesn't communicate well with us without getting frustrated. We had counseling done for over 6 months with no results, as well as problems with her continuously lying to us about who she was with and what she was doing. I know a lot of this is "normal" teenage stuff, but I don't know how else to help get her back on track academically. She has lost her phone, laptop, TV and is essentially grounded until her grades come up, and it's made no difference. She has also been told that I will delay her getting her license for a year if she doesn't pass 9th grade...again, no change. Has anyone dealt with a similar situation that may have some advice for me? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2Ag67tN
