Re: Morning Routine
No one in my family is a morning person, including ds (almost 11). He needs much more sleep and bedtime is 9:30 (we also homeschool). I think 11 seems too late.
Have you tried having him go to bed earlier to see how the morning goes?
Also, have you tried making him responsible for his own getting up and getting going? My ds knows he has to have certain things done by a certain time, or else he cannot do other things. For example, ds LOVES to help out with dd during her twice weekly PT sessions. PT is at 10 a.m. On those days, ds has to have all his chores, personal care, and devotions done by the time the therapist arrives, or he cannot help. These things come first. Therefore, he has to be responsible in getting up and doing them.
