Aculady,
Thanks for your reply.
That totally makes sense. As I said in my previous post, DS is not a high achiever or people pleaser. he never wants to win or show people what he is able to do. All he does is driven by his own interests.
He does have attention problems; he could never pay attention especially in his kungfu class or soccer camp, when the coach is explaining something. He seems to be in his own world most of the time. That made his dad and I so frustrated about him. Could that be related to ADHD? But when he reads a book, he is so deeply in it, so one can easily distract him...
Anyway, I have not been able to discuss these issues with anyone other than my DH. Being able to openly discuss this on this forum is great.
