Age could be a big factor here, at age 5 I couldn't expect my ds to walk across the room without forgetting to walk across the room (sigh). Now at 10, he is just sitting in the living room at 9:30, pretty late for him, writing a 5 paragraph essay with 5 sentences each. No teeth pulling, just crankin' it out.
Sure he still has some magnificent 'I forgot' moments, but most of the important stuff gets done, thankfully.

Hopefully getting a bit older will mitigate a lot of what is worrisome at this point.
I know it is good to get a jump early on issues like this, however, to avoid undue frustration, self esteem issues and so-on. Best of luck figuring it out.
