[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is what middle school is good for. YES! These kids need to figure this out on their own esp in HS and yes if they learn from failing let them!! I had a huge fear of letting my child fail but I spoke to the school and teachers and backed off at home to let them take the lead and my child to succeed on her own. She stumbled but to my surprise she kicked into high gear on her own. Child also lost access to phone, TV, games and even extra curricular. In our school if they don’t meet certain expectations they can’t participate in school extra cirrucular activities. It really has to come from them. I also have been working to not stress grades and instead have been focusing on effort..grades do show up when the effort is put in.[/quote]
