I understand that you are saying she might not every be able to just get anything done.

So do I remove more expectations?

Do I let her not do school and have her take two years or more to get 6th grade work finished?

We are honistly at way lower than I think is generally acceptable, for a 7 year old much less an 11 year old.

She does not need lowered expectations.

She needs help developing tools to manage her symptoms so she can live up to the expectations in place. These tools will serve her in the future as she leaves the nest and has to learn to pay bills on time, show up to work, communicate her needs to her boss and Co-workers.

But how that will look is going to be very tailored to her, as is shown just between the way we both have to manage our very different manifestations of ADHD. I don't know how you will need to tailor plan b to make it work for her, but I think that route might be the best.

I'm sorry if this isn't clear. I'll spend some time thinking and praying and see if I can be clearer. Hopefully someone else will step in and help as well.
