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 used to think I was too smart to fall for a scam, but last year proved me wrong. It’s hard to put into words the frustration and shame I felt when I realized that what I thought was a legitimate investment was actually a clever trap. They called it a secure digital bond, a system that promised low risk with consistent returns through blockchain backed assets. I didn’t jump in immediately, I did my research, looked at reviews, and everything seemed legitimate. I thought I was making a wise choice. But things took a turn quickly. At first, the account showed profits that looked just like what they’d promised. I even withdrew a small amount to reassure myself. But then, one day, my account access was blocked without warning and customer service wouldn’t respond. I felt sick because Not only had I invested my savings, but I’d also told my family and friends about it so the guilt was overwhelming. For weeks, I thought I’d never see that money again. I felt alone, ashamed, and powerless. But during one late night search for answers, I stumbled upon JETHACKS RECOVERY CENTRE. At first, I was skeptical. I had no reason to trust anyone after what had happened. But desperation got the better of me, and I reached out via telegram on the team’s official account @ JETHACKSS . From the beginning, they didn’t make promises, they were honest about the process and the possibility of success. It felt like someone had finally given me hope, without sugarcoating the challenges. Working with them was intense. They required some details of my activities with the platform. I was willing to do anything. The process felt painstakingly slow, but then came the breakthrough. Finally, They traced my funds through multiple accounts and successfully recovered every single amount back to my possession, bringing both joy and life back to my home again.
    This experience has taught me so much, not only about digital investments but about resilience and trusting my instincts. I want others to know that even if you feel hopeless, there are professionals who can help you fight for what’s rightfully yours.

    Contacting a recovery agent would probably be more of a lame joke to me than an advice a couple of months back before I made a slip and lost $590,300 in the sad process unfortunately. All options came down to contacting a recovery agent and I did. I got details about GENUINE HACKERS from my long hours of surfing the web. I saw a post about him on reddit and I decided to give it a shot since I didn’t have any other option and nothing more to lose at this point. I immediately contacted him and that’s the best decision I’ve made. I would have lost all my retirement benefits to these fraudsters. He got the money back swiftly, it was barely a challenge to him. His work is top notch and I’ll recommend him to everyone, I have introduced a couple of my other friends to him too. you can contact him on GENUINEHACKERS000@GMAIL.COM or WhatsApp +1 (260) 218-3592.
