As we gear ourselves up for the new academic year, anxiety, stress and a whole bunch of other mixed emotions are most likely what you are feeling right now.
Parents, the above message is for you, not for your child.
"I wonder if my child will pass"
"I hope my child doesn't get bullied this year"
"I wonder if my child will make the A-team"
"I hope my child feels accepted and makes new friends"
There are so many things to be concerned about as a parent, but through motivation, open communication and zero judgement, expect your relationship with your child to flourish.
They spend more time at school than they do at home, and chances are they are most likely a TOTALLY different person at school.
We need to remember, they are human.
Guide them, motivate them, and speak to them with calmness and love.
Naturally you want what's best for them, but always remember that everyone's skills and abilities are different - patience is definitely required.
Just my 2c. 😉
Oh, and get them a maths tutor as well 😃
(Trust me, it'll help improve your child's grades, AND save some of your sanity 😅)
