When it comes to her reading. She is supposed to read a certain amount of books per grading period and it's been crazy trying to get her to do it. I had her sitting there one night (after days on end of her saying she's reading when really she isn't) sitting in there with me reading a page and saying 'done' at the end of each page so i can tell the speed at which she's reading. I am not going to read it for her.
She does all of her other homework and schoolwork fine. Her dad sees her twice a week and she is a VERY calm child yet he wants to take her to the doctor behind my back, to a doctor tht isn't even her regular doctor, to get her put on ADD meds because of this.
She can sit there for hours reading things that she is INTERESTED in, just not something that she has to do for school.
I'm at my wits end here. At this point, I have her reading a chapter then writing a page about it before starting the next chapter. She was skipping pages at one point.
