Kat, I struggled with D11 back in 3rd and 4th grade on homework because she always wants to take the easy way out and I'd make sure she understood or could explain the answer.
She's in the advanced academy so we couldn't have done too poorly.
Now, the times she does ask for help we actually work well together because she understands I won't let her take the easy way out.
The big thing with D11 -- in my eyes -- is to get her to develop some kind of exercise routine or find something physical that she likes to do.
We have a Nintendo Wii. D11 actually is borderline obese and it's pretty much come in the past two years.
When she was younger she was misdiagnosed with a slight case of asthma. Turns out it was just our old musty carpet that needed to be replaced. She's been fine ever since.
But she's always using asthma as an excuse not to run.
So my plan is to make sure on Wednesday nights -- the nights I have them -- that we make it to the health club for an hour and then at least one weekend day of the weekends I have them.
