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

HIRE AN EXPERT TO RETRIEVE CRYPTO ASSET: META TECH RECOVERY PRO ASSET RECOVERY EXPERT.
Since 2019, the concept of Bitcoin had been circulating in my awareness, yet it wasn’t until 2024 that I truly began to pay attention. This shift in perspective coincided with the resurgence of Donald Trump’s political campaign, coupled with the prominent involvement of Elon Musk in public discourse. The conversations at my workplace centered on the potential for digital currencies to experience significant growth, particularly if Trump were to regain power. This speculation piqued my interest, prompting me to delve deeper into the subject and consider investing a portion of my savings. A colleague’s enthusiastic endorsement of Bitcoin as the “future gold” further fueled my curiosity. Consequently, I registered on several cryptocurrency mining and trading platforms, but one, in particular, consistently held my attention. Over the subsequent weeks, I experienced success on various platforms, which led me to consider increasing my investment to generate greater returns. I ultimately chose a platform that presented exceptionally high-profit projections. Without conducting thorough research, I committed a substantial sum of 68,000 Pounds to acquire a “gold account,” enticed by the promise of substantial returns on investment. Regrettably, I later discovered that the platform’s claims were fraudulent, and their promises were entirely unfounded. Faced with this realization, I was compelled to seek a means of recovering my lost funds. After careful consideration, I engaged the services of META TECH RECOVERY PRO to undertake this challenging task. To my immense relief and satisfaction, they performed exceptionally well, successfully retrieving my funds from the deceptive platform. I am profoundly grateful to the dedicated team at META TECH RECOVERY PRO for their expertise and unwavering commitment. for help via:
