[quote=Anonymous]I would make him solve the problem. Here is your time, here is your hw, your sports, the dog and chill time. If I have to pay a dog walker that costs the family X. If you are not starting your HW, that is affecting ypur ability to do sports. Don't just come home early and/or pay someone because your kid wants to watch Family Guy. All you are teaching him to do is be self-absorbed. Either drop a sport, drop part of your allowance to pay the walker, or learn "to chill" by taking your dog for a walk. Life has trade offs. Better to learn them sooner rather than later. I'd make him show me some homework that has been started before going to practice. No work, no ride. School before sports. [/quote]
