[quote=Anonymous] [quote]If they don't do their work, they get bad grades. That is the consequence.[/quote] +1. Middle school is the perfect time to learn this lesson for themselves. I haven't looked at my junior son's grade book since 7th grade. He knows what grade we expect on the report card and he does what he needs to do to get that grade. There might be a zero on a one point assignment along the way. Our relationship is better if I don't nag him or punish him over that one point and he is quite responsible about doing his work on time. If he received a C or a report card that was straight Bs, we would look to see what went wrong, but he hasn't done that. [/quote]
