I think that this sort of behaviour can often be something to do with hormones and proving themselves to be 'the best male' etc. We may have advanced in many ways, but we are so often still at the mercy of our hormones.

I ask this because one of mine isn't dyslexic, but has dyscalcula (the maths problem) Dysgraphia (can't copy very well from a board) and takes ages to write a paper. It's very difficult for these kids in class and they often tend not to bother.<BR/>As for the peacock, good for him. Who wants a boring child?

I've taught many in my time. Don't ask me the solution though! I put them in detention and stand over them to get decent work out of them, but how to get them to motivate themselves I don't know.
