As someone who had debilitating clinical anxiety for much of my life (I'm a lot better now!), as well as going undiagnosed with both ADHD and autism until I was 30, I only ask that you try not to blame this child or take his acting-out personally. Instead, it seems more like it's his parents that are the real problem. If they are unwilling to take the necessary steps to address these issues (such as holding him accountable for genuine or otherwise inexcusably bad behavior) and prefer to avoid accountability by blaming everyone else but themselves for the child's woes, then there isn't much he can do on his own. Have you ever thought about asking him to have lunch with you one day? Not lunch detention, but a genuine invitation. You'd be best at figuring out the premise that is most likely to get him to agree (e.g., going over recent submissions, picking his brain on his favorite subject, asking him delicately about why he gets anxious sometimes, or even asking about his home life and how he is treated in general). You can give him a signed hall-pass with a date and time on it. That simple piece of paper symbolizes: (1) a future appointment he needs to keep, one that can help build self-discipline; (2) an invitation exclusive to him, giving him a sense of both independence and autonomy; and (3) it shows that you SEE him, and HEAR him... that you recognize his acting out from a place of love and concern, not from a place of harshness and scorn.

It took me a couple reads to understand what you were getting at, but I see now it was specifically about how the Biden forgiveness proposal would affect loans covered by other forgiveness programs (rather than how it would affect all loans period... which is what I thought you meant at first). In other words: Loan forgiveness that is part of income-based repayment programs works like this: if you make your monthly payment for the required number of years (e.g., 10 years for those in not-for-profit or government jobs), then your remaining loan balance is entirely forgiven. The amount forgiven may count as a taxable event in the year the forgiveness occurred; this tax liability can be spread out over 6 tax years. For example, consider a public school teacher with 10 years (aka 120 months) in one of these programs. After their 120th monthly payment (for a total of $30k in payments), the remaining $100k balance of their loans are forgiven. Depending on their circumstances, this forgiveness may be a tax liability and can be spread out over the next 6 years. Alternatively, suppose that same public school teacher also qualifies for $20k of relief from Biden's forgiveness program. In this case, the additional forgiveness doesn't change the amount of months required before your remaining balance is forgiven, nor does it lower your monthly payment. You still end up paying the same $30k over the same 120 months. The only thing the $20k in additional forgiveness will do is decrease the balance forgiven that you may owe taxes on (from $100k to $80k).

Imo, he should be classified as a Special Needs child and given appropriate assistance. While most children learn at the same rate in the same collective setting, some learn slower and others learn faster. The outliers shouldn't be pigeonholed into the cookie-cutter approach applied to those students within the 1st standard deviation from the mean. That same philosophy can apply to behavioral as well as intellectual special needs. When I went to school in western NY, those children with behavioral issues did receive special attention and were often separated from the rest of us. I'm a little surprised you're facing such an obstacle, even if you are teaching in Florida.

Blocking is one of the most basic yet important things in football. Only one guy can have the ball at a time. If everyone on your offense can’t block at a high level, then the other skills at the skill positions don’t matter. -

Balance is key over the length of the season. When the defense doesn’t know what to expect your offense has an advantage. You can also be a pass-happy offense but you MUST be a physically dominant team as well. This is football. The stronger, faster, and tougher team usually wins. Coaching only goes so far to cover up weaknesses, and it can’t cover up a lack of physicality.
