Cally, I read your post earlier and did an internal happy dance that we haven't had any readers home yet, but of course it was short lived and waiting in his bag today. Pretty much as you described, wobbling his legs and hence book all over the place then getting grumpy when I pointed out missed lines. I managed to save it by sitting him at the table and reading alternate pages. I had managed to erase the homework hell from my mind over the summer but I guess it is back again. I hate the fact that it takes longer to get him settled in and acting reasonable than it takes to do the actual work.
MD, do you think that alexithymia is a born personality trait, or something that develops during childhood due to parenting practices/circumstance?
