This one is for parents who wish their kids were doing better academically, but might especially resonate with Moms of teen boys who just aren't showing interest in school. Hockey, basketball, friends? Definitely. Homework or studying? Not so much.

 

Sharon was worried about her Grade 8 son for a few reasons.

Sebastian didn’t connect with his teacher at all.

He'd always liked school but not this year. He stopped getting assignments in on time. It got harder and he felt like he wasn’t smart enough to do well anymore.

Despite the fact that he’d done well academically in the past, and worked hard to improve in hockey and basketball, he seemed to show an inherent laziness towards school work.

Above all, what worried Sharon the most was that she didn’t know how to help. She knew things would persist as they were or get worse, and she feared what was in store if her son didn’t regain his confidence before starting high school.

 

Deep down she knew he wanted to do better, but didn’t know how. Tune in to hear in her own words how she turned things around.
