In the third grade my DD was bringing home hours of homework every night. I contacted the teacher who told me it was stuff she had not finished in school cause she was wondering the room. I told her to tell DD to SIT DOWN!! She wouldn't so I gave DD a small postit note to go at the corner of her desk. I told her to put a mark on the paper everytime she got up and bring me the paper every night. The first day she had 24 marks on the paper and four hours of homework. I told her I wanted the marks cut in half the next day, they were and so was the homework. Things progressed along until she was only getting up 4-6 times a day and the homework was much better. This is just one example of how things go with an ADD'er.
