[quote=Anonymous]Stressing other people, especially children (which teens still are) is NEVER a smart move. Motivate is different than stress. The key is to figure out if your child is trying their best. If they are (which may not set them up for selective college admissions, or what others can achieve), you need to help them accept that. And feel proud that they are applying themselves to the best of their ability. That is called unconditional love and represents healthy parenting. Anything less can have serious mental health implications for your child.[/quote]
