I'm at the end of my tether, and don't know where to turn. DS 15 has always struggled with school. Unfortunately, like me, he's just not academic. Had a meeting with school and was agreed he'd attend 5 homework club sessions a week ( x2 lunchtimes x3 after school ) to help him catch up on work. But he "forgets" to go to most of them. I've had numerous long talks with him but it's just not sinking in. I'm getting calls at work at least weekly from his teachers but they're not offering up any solutions and claim he's just lazy. Aside from giving up work and escorting him to every session myself I don't know what else to do. Anyone experienced similar and/or have some advice?
