In this episode, we talk about motivating reluctant kids. Kids with learning challenges, or laid back kids who just don't like to be challenged; sometimes kids just going through a phase! How can we avoid yanking them along, undermining the relationship and frustrating ourselves and the reluctant learner? How to capitalize on their interests and what motivates them. Creating routine is a lifesaver in many families and on SO many levels. Join us for some thoughts on all of the above....
