Before anyone else asks me about cultural, familial, behavioural or any other 'problems' or labels they want to apply to kids may I just say two things.
1}Drop the labels and excuses.
2) All such 'reasons' for how difficult it is merely shows the need, in fact emphasizes the need for teaching what is interesting and useful (to the student!) rather than carrying on with the same old curriculum blaming all and sundry for their lack of attention.

Peace.G.
