Establish good homework habits early. Create structure, not pressure. Allow breaks as needed, but do not permit avoidance. Set do-able goals. If your child is overwhelmed by a new assignment, break it into small steps.
Morning means pressure be on time.
Control morning moods, don't let them control you. Prepare the night before. Do what it takes to see your child off with warmth and cheer. Keep your perspective and your sense of humor. Copyright 2001, Fearless Focus.
