[QUOTE="Crayola13, post: 762727, member: 21066"] I teach English Comp I, II, creative writing, and advanced placement literature at a high school. These students have amazing and sometimes gifted abilities, but their problem is they can’t handle boredom. They are easily bored and have to have constant stimulation because they just lose interest in everything they have to do. These students don’t know how to handle boredom, so they get themselves into trouble because it’s more entertaining to do something risky than to follow the rules of life. It’s not always ADHD. These students just cannot keep themselves entertained about anything. I don’t know what the solution is, but I’ve seen it happen so many times to brilliant students and athletes who could have the world as their oyster. [/QUOTE]
