8 Tips on Effectively Helping Your Kids with Their Homework

Because you don't have time for another job when you get home from the first one.

Stubborn student keeping you from enjoying your post-work evening? Follow these veteran parents’ advice for getting assignments done—without energy-draining begging or bribing.

1. “My son does everything he can without me, and he puts a sticky note on the things he needs help with so we can review together later. It works great and instills organizational techniques as well.”

—Julie Cantor, M.D., faculty member at UCLA School of Law and founder/CEO of Harlen, a woman’s handbag line

2. “Have a dedicated homework area that is NOT centrally located. The kitchen table might be too distracting with the dog, siblings and art supplies close by. We keep a small table in a quiet corner with paper, pencils and erasers on it. When my daughter sits there, she knows it’s time to get down to business!”

—Beth Cubbage, software consulting manager and owner of the blog Parent Lightly

3. “I text my kids daily at around 4 p.m. to ask about homework in a family group chat. They’ll send pictures and screenshots of their assignments, and my husband and I walk them through those problems between meetings at work.”

—Gina Hooks, senior social media marketing manager

4. “If your kids have a favorite subject, do it last so they are motivated to complete work on less-enjoyable material.”

—Elizabeth Malson, president and VP of marketing at Amslee Institute, an online technical school for caregivers

5. “We have an Amazon Echo at home. If I’m not home while the kids are doing their homework, I ‘drop in’ through the Echo app on my phone. I can hear the kids where they hang out, and assist accordingly. We also have Nest cameras up, so I can visually get an idea of what’s going on and provide homework guidance.”

—Esti Chazanow, co-founder and brand manager at LIV Watches

6. “We all grab a snack and spread out at the kitchen table. I send business emails, and the kids ask me for help when needed. It sends the message: We’re in it together, and I’d rather not be doing my homework either, but it’s the responsible thing to do.”

—Kelley Kitley, psychotherapist

7. “We minimize distractions—her siblings—by having my husband play with them while I work one on one with my daughter. If she starts to get overly frustrated or tired, my husband and I quickly swap to reset the energy in the room.”

—Lauren Golden, author of The Free Mama: How to Work from Home, Control Your Schedule, and Make More Money

8. “We use Alexa to set a timer for my daughter’s math problems. She loves talking to Alexa and the challenge of trying to complete more and more problems in two minutes.”

—Katie Coleman, consultant

    I was lured into a crypto currency investment platform that I came across on Instagram. I lost about $508,000 to this evil scheme after I invested and accumulated profits, I was denied withdrawals on the specified date. I wrote to the customer support but I was given no feedback, I knew I had been scammed and I started to search for a way to recover my crypto. I considered myself fortunate that I stumbled upon a post on the internet web about a recovery expert, Hack Michelle Tyler.

    SEARCHING FOR THE BEST CRYPTO RECOVERY HACKERS VISIT DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY

    Living off a modest pension as a retired Army veteran I never thought I would become the victim of a cryptocurrency scam. I spent my life serving with honor and believed in duty loyalty and trust. So when a man contacted me claiming to work for a military-affiliated financial service offering a secure Bitcoin investment program to upgrade my pension I believed him. He spoke with confidence and used military terms that made the whole thing sound legitimate. He said it was part of a government-supported initiative to help veterans boost their retirement income through crypto. The website looked professional with military emblems and links that appeared to connect to official agencies. It felt familiar and trustworthy. After several conversations and what I believed were security verifications I made the decision to transfer 2.4 BTC to enroll in the program. I genuinely thought I was doing the right thing for my future. But not long after everything disappeared. The website was gone the phone number stopped working and no one replied to my emails. That was when I realized I had been scammed. I felt humiliated and deeply disappointed. Someone had used my identity as a veteran to deceive me. My daughter saw how it affected me and stepped in to help. She did some research and found a team called Digital Tech Guard Recovery. At first I was unsure but she encouraged me to reach out. From the moment I contacted them they took me seriously. They were professional respectful and acted fast. They started by tracking the movement of the stolen Bitcoin through blockchain forensics. Within a short period they managed to trace and recover all the stolen BTC. I could hardly believe it. I had already accepted the loss but they brought everything back. They kept me informed at every step and treated me with dignity. They never made me feel foolish for trusting the wrong person. This cryptocurrency scam tried to take advantage of my service and steal what little I had but Digital Tech Guard Recovery turned the situation around. They gave me more than my money back. They gave me back my peace of mind. Digital Tech Guard Recovery honored me more than the scammer ever did. They reminded me that even in the digital world there are still people who stand for something real. you can reach out to them on WhatsApp: +1 (443) 859 – 2886

    Life hasn’t been easy but I’ve done everything I can to raise my two boys right after losing my wife. Being a single dad is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do but I’ve taken it one day at a time determined to give them a good life. After years of focusing only on them I finally felt ready to put myself out there again and try dating. I joined a dating app and quickly connected with a woman who seemed thoughtful, sincere and financially intelligent. She told me she was involved in Bitcoin trading and had done well for herself. More than that she said she wanted to help me build a better future for my kids. I’ll admit I was touched. She said all the right things. Over the next few weeks we talked constantly. She never pushed just encouraged me and gave small pieces of financial advice. Eventually she told me about a private trading pool her team used. It was supposedly low risk with high return. She even showed me screenshots of her growing profits. I wanted to believe her. I wanted to believe in something again. So I did it. I transferred 2 Bitcoin to the Wallet address she gave me. The next morning she disappeared. Her profile was gone. All of our messages deleted. My Bitcoin was gone too. I felt absolutely crushed. For days I couldn’t sleep. I blamed myself for falling for it. I didn’t even want to tell anyone what had happened until a coworker noticed I wasn’t myself. When I finally told him he said one name GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE. I contacted GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE without much hope but they surprised me. From the first call they treated me with respect and urgency. Their Investigators traced the scammer’s Wallet and they froze assets. Two weeks later they recovered 1.3 BTC. No it wasn’t everything. But it was enough to restore my faith. More importantly, someone fought for me. I wasn’t just another online victim, I was a father trying to do the right thing. I didn’t find love. But I found justice and a way forward for my boys.I’ll always be grateful.You can reach them on whatsapp+18582759508 web at ( https://graywaretechservice.com/ )    also on Mail: (contact@graywaretechservice.com
