Do you feel drawn into a battle over homework with your child every night? There are so many parents like you who say that this is one of the topmost struggles with their kids. If you’re dealing with this right now and you probably dread with this words saying, “ Okay now it’s time to do your homework” because you know what answer you are going to get which is probably screaming, book- throwing, stomping and slamming doors and many disaster actions and behavior. Or it might simply be hours of dealing with your complaining child, disobedient or whining kid or teen who just hates to do the work. Even though your lectures, yell, nag and reasons, nothing seems to change their minds and each night turns into a battle with no victors in it. Even though, if your child asks you, “Can you do my homework for me Mommy” rather than scolding or yelling on him talk to him politely and help him understand the importance of the homework.
Trust us, we get it. Every parent has to admit that dealing with their child’s homework was one of the least favorite experiences as a parent. It often feels overwhelming and you just weren’t equipped to offer the help which they needed. Your child might fool you by pretending that he forgets to do his homework, and might do his homework but not hand it in, do it sloppily or carelessly or not study properly for his test. These are the things that most students try to hold onto the little control they have. When this starts happening, parents feel more and more out of control so they may nag, yell, punish, argue or throw up their hands or over functions for their kids by doing the work for them.
Now the battle between child and arrest is in its full swing: reactivity is heightened as anxiety is elevated and homework is lost in the shuffle. The harsh truth for parents is that they cannot make their children do many things at least in this era, let alone homework. The least you can do is to set limits and respect their individual choices and help motivate them to motivate themselves.
You might be thinking right now to yourself that how can we suggest you anything while we don’t know your child and I can’t motivate him to do anything. Many parents tell us that their children are not motivated to do their work however they are motivated but they just may not be motivated the way you had like them to be. Keep reading this article in order to help you guide them in their work without having to nag, threaten or fight with them.
Remember to keep in your mind that if you carry more stress, worry, fear and disappointments than your child does about his work then ask yourself “What’s wrong with this picture and how it happens?” Remember as long as you carry these concerns then they don’t have to.
However, parents around the world desire to have a magic formula so they can encourage their kids to do their homework. Indeed, it is never as simple as waving a wand, but there are some methods for encouraging kids to develop, improve and even stick to a regular homewrok routine. For some parents, effective encouragement will also about changing your own approach to homework enforcement. Don’t you worry, it’s not as difficult as you think it is just about taking a mile minute out of the day. Create a homework schedule and space, establish clear expectations, consequences and rewards, and approach homework positively.
