I'll agree, you've crested a hill a bit here COG - keep on rollin'

I don't intend to give you a whole bunch of reading materials - it is just stuff I've poured over through this whole process as sometimes I totally share your homework frustration. I just got the standardized test results back for my two older ones and they did phenomenally well - however you'd never expect it based on their study habits. Goes to prove they are smart kids, its just that you have to find the right way of "coaching".

Anyway, a good one (and available on CD so you can listen in the car) is "How to talk so you kids will listen and How to listen so your kids will talk". Great way of paradigm shifting your skills with your kids.

You're turning a big ol' corner COG - keep it up!

Never sacrifice the great for the good. Sometimes the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.
