My husband and one of our children have ADHD. My husband has been a great help with our son Alex in this regard. He found a couple ways to help Alex stay organized and get things done in time for deadlines. One of those ways was sticky notes and a planner.

He’s in highschool and just went back to school two weeks ago but this has been an ongoing issue. We both do the sticky note strategy and it goes on his door so he doesn’t forget we only do it for big things. The problem is he will ignore my sticky notes, he will do all of his dads things no problem but mine just exist even if there is a due date. I have talked to him and so has my husband, changed strategies a few times but he won’t do what I tell him.

He can do his dads stuff just fine, and he has told me I nag him way to much but I only put stuff on their a few times a month. It’s been a problem and me and my husband can’t figure out why he is doing it.

We though he needed more space so I only put one a month on his thing, so I stopped nagging. Anyways he needed to turn in a form for school that will allow him to got to cedar point, it s a big event for kids who got good grades last year. Well I put the reminder on his door, all he had to do was turn it in. He didn’t.

He came home and was really upset about being denied and I need to call the school to fix the issue I refused.I told him he didn’t do it and I’m not bailing him out. My husband is on my side but no one else is. I got a call from my parents about it and my son has called me a jerk and refuses to talk to me.
