Ds1 (14) has struggled with school since he was 5. He looks perfectly happy, but feels bullied.
In lessons he is (I imagine) very annoying, will try to be a joker, but comes across as an idiot (I've been told this in so many ways by a few of his teachers).
He has some AS traits, but this is something we haven't really acknowledged as we are struggling to get anywhere with ds2 who has more traits (iyswim), but we try to be understanding of him and have ways to help him at home.
I read this, about executive functioning and have found that pretty much all of it (apart from the inhibition section) applies to ds1.
Is this typical teenage behaviour and struggles, and learning these are part of growing up? Or does this indicate that there's something that we're missing?
If typical, how do we help him learn them so he can cope better in school.
If not typical, what can we do to help?
Thank you.
