Any tips on how to approach this? DC is 15, states they are non-gender binary, is ASD diagnosed - Asperger's syndrome. Says they have "brain fog" and can't revise therefore does very little, Over the 2 week Christmas period admitted they did 1hour - said they could not concentrate. Gets very upset when challenged on it. Wants to see GP to ask them to fix the brain fog. Says they read a question on the exam paper 8 times but it still didn't go in.
GCSE mocks results are coming in and it's not looking good.
Now, I know forcing someone to revise isn't the answer, they need to want to do it to be able to take the info in.
What am I missing to make it better for them? Any tips/tricks?
I'm also posting on the ASD boards here for advice from the Asperger's perspective.
