[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t pay for grades - they need to be motivated on their own. I read to them every night before bed - birth through 6th grade. They need to do their best and they need to complete their HW / assignments etc. My oldest is in 9th grade. I recently gave him a college book (the 2024 version) that my parents gave to me when I was in 9th gr and I basically said - I am not going to nag you. The reason why you want to get good grades is to go to a good college and you need to motivated on your own for that - I already went to college and I’m not going to micromanage you. It’s for you now - not for me. [/quote] What college book did you give him?[/quote] +1 I was wondering the same thing. [/quote]
