Hi - am wondering if anyone has or knows of success stories re addressing underachievement? There seems to be plenty of info discussing the issue, but not so much by way of practical, proven advice (recognising that kids are all different - am looking for gleams of hope as much as anything).
DS is 11 and things seem to be getting worse rather than better, making us all unhappy. Admittedly we've had some other reasonably hefty things going on, but still. I'm increasingly worried that, given his age, he might be on a path that's difficult to reverse, and so would really like to hear some first hand stories of underachievement being turned around.
Thanks in anticipation...
