Yr10 DSD14 lives full time with DH and I. As of Monday we're starting homeschooling. We both WFH normally, so no change in routine.
Her school and teachers have been incredible, and sent work home via Show My Homework and Google Classrooms, so have been able to build a timetable for her to work from. Kept it realistic, 4 hours a day, allowing plenty of time to get out in the garden and keep in touch with friends etc.
Have set her up a desk in our home office, she has a laptop and all the tools she needs. All things considered, as set ups go, she is definitely getting a smoother transition than many.
She's just hit the roof, and is point blank refusing to do any work. Refusing to even consider doing school work, at all. Says we can't make her and she won't even look at it.
I 100% appreciate that she is scared and confused - we all are. But I can't seem to get it through to her that getting some routine back will really help, and that she can't just abandon school work for 6 months!
Anyone else facing this? How are you dealing with it?
