My son is a good kid. Does well in school (average), has friends, and the teachers have nice things to say about him. However, lately, his behavior is outrageous. He talks back, he doesn't listen, he doesn't do what he is supposed to do. For example, my husband (his father) took him to a cub scout meeting this evening. When it was my son's turn to read he just goofed around and clowned around and didn't take this seriously. This is the problem we seem to be having with him lately. Nothing is taken seriously - homework (around 2-3 hours per night), extracurricular activities, nothing. Taking things away as a form of discipline doesn't seem to work. We are at our wits end. What is the best way to deal with this type of behavior. I have considered that he may have a touch of ADHD/ADD but I'm not sure that this is really the issue. Any advise...PLEASE!
