Yeah I'm not talking hours, I'm talking minutes. I see her in the class, they give the kids a writing assignment. Which at this age is like "write this sentence" at most. Normally they write their names and home addresses. She can almost always do her name, sometimes her address. The sentence shit? Forget about it. She immediately loses focus, starts scribbling or whatever, or just gets up and refuses to do it. Other kids her age do it. But it's more than that. Like she'll be doing something and just lose track of it halfway through and move on to something else. I know you're saying "all kids do that" but she literally does that with EVERYTHING. You literally cannot bargain/incentivize/bribe her because the concept of getting a reward later means nothing to her, she's cold as fuck like that. I don't know, explaining every little nuance makes it sound like blowing isolated incidents out of proportion, but I'm saying it isn't isolated incidents, it is all day every day. Lately the behavior has gotten so extreme at school she is in danger of being kicked out. And she is supposed to start kindergarten in like 2 weeks.
The other day was the tipping point she loses it, start having a meltdown, striping her shoes and shirt off, tipping over chairs, throwing toys, kicked one of the directors in the shin. All this over some stupid writing that escalated to that. She gets worked up and like can't control her emotions, and it seems like she just does stuff impulsively without really thinking, idk. Something is up. Maybe not this, I really don't know. It could be me or the teachers, maybe we are doing something wrong. Bro, I just need help to keep this kid in school.
Gav, the multiple opinions may not work. The test isn't some simple thing, it is days of observations, questionnaires for us and the teachers and her pediatrician, interviews, etc. Our Dr said that if insurance doesn't cover it, it could cost $2k+.
Dishes just get done by whoever gets tired of the stack first.
