Caught In The Battle Over Homework?


Are you working around the clock with your child completing a school project? Wondering what to do when your child forgets to hand in an assignment - a few days in a row? Baffled by experts who tell us we should help our children enjoy school and become independent learners? "Great," you might think, "but how?"


"Our children become independent learners very gradually," advises guidance counselor Linda Lendman, M.S.W. They learn at their own pace and you can support their process at home by nurturing what they are interested in and giving gentle guidance when they need assistance."


"What happens at home has a lot to do with supporting your child's success as a learner - and this goes way beyond making sure she gets her homework done or studies for the test. Bringing in a third party such as a tutor helps reduce the friction between child and parent. You want to help kids learn how to feel competent and positive about their learning. You can assist by helping your kids organize themselves (at their developmental level); create a schedule for doing their work and discover how they can follow it, so school work becomes a rich part of their after-school lives, but not the only part." advises Diane Levin, Ph.D., professor of education at Wheelock College.
