    The little fella is quite good at maths. However when he is given a maths worksheet to complete he gets through maybe 6 of the 10 questions then kind of drifts off, first getting a couple wrong then not completing the task. When he is good he scores 80 - 90%, but more often this tendency he has brings his scores right down. When he brings the worksheets home from school, we put the incorrectly answered questions to him and he answers them correctly in a jiffy.

    He takes all the Omega 3 supplements,, which have helped in the past I must say, but I wonder if anybody has any similar experiences and what they have done. Somebody suggested perhaps a lack of sugar or liquids? Dunno - any suggestions appreciated
