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

My Personal Experience with iFORCE HACKER RECOVERY
I’m sharing my personal experience with iForce Hacker Recovery, who I encountered after falling victim to a cryptocurrency scam. I lost $747,000 to a fake website, Desperate for a solution, I searched online and found iForce Hacker Recovery, who had positive reviews. I contacted them, and we agreed on a 10% fee for their services.
However, things took a turn when iFORCE only recovered $500,000. Despite this, they still demanded the full 10% fee. I offered 5%, but they insisted on the original amount. The situation escalated when iFORCE threatened to destroy my reputation and release my personal information if I didn’t comply. I realized they had accessed my personal devices, including my WhatsApp, email, Instagram, and Facebook.
Fortunately, I sought help from Omega crypto, who successfully deleted iForce’s activities from my gadgets and secured my personal information. To avoid further threats, I paid iForce the 10% fee. I’m sharing my experience to caution others about the risks of dealing with hackers.

HOW TO REVENGE ON A CHEATING BOYFRIEND
Revenge is a dish best served cold. When someone cheats on you, you understandably want to lash out and get back at them. Of course, the most logical way is moving on but it really doesn’t hurt to snoop around and find out how their affair started and how it is fairing on. Yes, spying on the lovers. I opted to use a hacker who helped me spy on my ex even without having to install a spyware on his phone. I got the hacker’s email from a review about a husband who spied on his cheating wife. The email is maestroencrypter (@) financier (.) com. It may not be a conventional way of dealing with break ups but spying gave me closure and the motivation to better myself. The guy also has a WhatsApp number +12348023971
