Here's another question. He needs sleep but manages to draw bedtime out until it's really late. It's like pushing rope. The last leg of getting ready for bed is spending time in the bathroom. Once that door is closed there's nothing you can do. He is in control. We pulled bedtime in to 8:30 as he spends an hour in the bathroom and he still managed to get to bed just after 10. Too late for him. Frustrating. Exercises in control it seems.
I have a 12yo boy with similar issues. Not interested in things he used to love, taking forever in the bathroom and with routine tasks. He's always had EF problems, but lately it has been more difficult than usual.
I think the age has something to do with it as well as the transition to being a teen. DS is no longer interested in many of the things he used to spend time on (Pokemon, Legos), which seems to be him wanted to disassociate with reminders of himself as a small child.
