I remember having a hard time letting my mom help me with my homework when I was younger.

It would be better to let them do something of educational value that they choose. I will say that we all are much happier since we don't fight over homework and there haven't even been any differences in grades/teacher response.sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09643254681497962589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26403825.post-77360343209207420352007-09-20T20:27:00.000-07:002007-09-20T20:27:00.000-07:00yowsers.since i am not a mom yet i have no good ad...yowsers.<BR/>since i am not a mom yet i have no good advice to give you...although i did sit here and try to think of some helpful ideas. <BR/>when malak gets here i will become very wise and motherly and i will have tons of spiritual-ness and tons of ideas to bestow upon you. just give me a month or 2.<BR/>remember when we used to be sisters and we would talk on the phone sometimes? i think we only talked because i called you and now i havent called because you moved away from me and left me all alone in the southern states. my heart breaks.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05820555950707808783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26403825.post-48921808166009939882007-09-20T17:22:00.000-07:002007-09-20T17:22:00.000-07:00I love having other controlling mom friends!I love having other controlling mom friends!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00426965891801882709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26403825.post-10336425102777214112007-09-20T15:06:00.000-07:002007-09-20T15:06:00.000-07:00Jen...you make me laugh!

It doesn't help that we are both very stubborn and slightly controlling moms (hahahahah), and have daughters that are the same way. I do like that you used natural consequences, we've done that several times when it comes to homework and it works well. I love you and miss you and wish you were close by. Praying for patience :)Eric and Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158708222795977885noreply@blogger.com
