I'm sorry to say, this is your road unless your child gets help. For example, if your child is losing his sight and cannot read the worksheets, would you not have someone translate the work to braille or you would have to take the time to read for him? You essentially are reading for him. He has visual distractions which makes reading exhausting. Therefore, homework is overwhelming.

Find an tutor through ida.org in your area. Tutor must be Orton-Gillingham Trained. Child must be seen at least two hours weekly. At his age, results will be seen quickly.
Best wishes.
