[quote=Anonymous]If you've been micromanaging all along, you can't just step away all of a sudden. Your job (and ideally this would have been done in middle school) is to make sure they have the skills they need to manage this on their own. Can child email a teacher and/or advocate for themself? Can child study effectively? Can child manage their time and assignments? Can child look at a quiz they got a C on and know what they need to do differently next time? These are all the meta skills they need to succeed moving forward. Work on helping them get the skills and then increase the period of time between when you check in gradually. [/quote]
