How would you answer? For our first blog entries we will offer some challenges that parents like you have faced and give answers to these situations but we want to know your success stories and the challenges you have had with your children. Here we go...
The Situation:
Parent: How did your test go today?
Child: I don’t want to talk about it.
Parent: Why not?
Child: I just don’t get it! Why are some kids smart and I’m just dumb?
Parent: Well...
One Answer:
If you want a child who learns, be a parent who learns.
Don’t just tell your child to learn. Let them see that you can learn things that don’t come easily to you. Talk with your child about what you are learning. Share your challenges and mistakes. Let your child see the effort it takes you to solve problems. Remind them of something they had learned earlier that was difficult at first. Team up with your child to learn a challenging project together
