14 year old, idea of revision is to "do" two hours a day. Good we say, this is after loads of moaning etc. 1 hour 59 minutes of looking at book, says he's going out. We'll test you, we say and he gets maybe 2 out of ten questions right. goes into rant about our school failures etc and then says he won't do any more revision as he's obviously not doing it to our satisfaction! We've got up early, bought a ring binder and relevant bits and are prepared to sit down, write down in each subject what he has to revise and go through it with him, bearing in mind we have three other kids and a geriatric dad living with us. any ideas please to be rasonable parents, step families also involved...
