Hello
Just had a heart to heart with my son who feels he 'works all the time' and only has one day off! This follows an attempt from me to get him to complete his homework. We ask that he practises his spelling once each day and reads to us five out of seven days and every night he has a story that
I read to him. At weekends he has homework set by school that usually is complete within 20 mins or so.
How do you motivate your children? I feel really sad to hear he feels all he does is work and we really do not ask him to do more than the school sets. But it seems a shame that he is feeling this pressure so young!
Never experienced this with my older two children so all suggestions welcome.....
