This describes both myself and DS10. If a project catches his interest (happens rarely) he will put a lot more effort into it but I still find he will not do all I know he can do.
I have his parent teacher conference today and this is one of the topics I wish to discuss.
When he feels challenged - and I mean that directly - for instance the teacher says "I doubt anyone in this class can do x." then you can be sure DS will take on that challenge and do it. Unfortunately this also rarely if ever happens. :sigh:
