Do You Worry About Your Child's Grades? On this week's episode of Confessions Of A Parent Coach, I'll tell you a secret: I put very little stock in kids' grades! Listen in to learn why and see what I focus on instead. School is a stage on which ALL facets of a child's development and growth play out, and looking at the whole picture is so important. Instead of grades, let’s address what's beneath school struggles and help kids with what really matters. On two days in October, I’ll be doing precisely that in my next live workshop: Beyond Grades: Supporting performance, behavior & social/emotional health in school I’ve taken the most important skills that help my clients overcome school struggles and put them into this incredible workshop for you! We’re going to talk about: ♦ Frenemies, bullying, and social drama ♦ Homework, responsibility, and independence ♦ Classroom behavior, respect, and rules ♦ Time management and getting ready for school on time! And so much more! As always, I’ve planned plenty of time for Q&A and live coaching, so bring me all your school dilemmas, and let’s create real change for you and your family!
