Is this really a common problem with 10-11 year olds? This is our first year homeschooling, second if you count the now 11 year olds kinder year. My 8 year old is great at getting her work done except when said 11 year old is bugging her but my son, goodness gracious! None of his teachers have ever mention distracted, hard to focus or anything like that when talking about him. He needs constant reminders to stay on task. He used to be so independent. I mean I never had to keep after him to do his homework before. It is about driving me batty. Do any of you have any advice on tactics to help with this possible stage?
