Do you want to know what’s holding your teen back from homework success?Â
Hint: It’s not because your kiddo is lazy.Â
One of the most frequent issues raised by my parent coaching clients is their teen’s approach to school. Â
- Some kids wait until the very last minute to get started. Â
- Others are doing a mediocre job when they have the potential for much more. Â
- Some kids are opting out of homework all together, only to confront a backlog of unfinished assignments at the close of a marking period. Â
- And some kids get so spun up about getting everything just right that they either obsess over their work or put it off until they believe they can, perhaps, achieve perfection. Â
Sound familiar?
If you're anything like the parents I work with, there's a good chance you spend many of your evenings feeling angry and exasperated with your teen.
You're sick of nagging your teen to do their homework and worried about the damage this is doing to your relationship with them. Â
This is tough stuff. These are the dynamics that turn parents into nags, family members into adversaries, and can, overtime, create friction and conflict in the parent-child relationship. No one wants any of these outcomes.
Why I created this resource
Beyond Nagging: Empowering Parents to Transform Homework Headaches.
What I know from over two and a half decades in education is that there are always reasons for kids’ (sometimes maddening) behavior. When you understand these reasons AND have the communication tools to intervene effectively, everyone wins. Â

About Teen Savvy
Teen Savvy Coaching takes the mystery out of raising and being a teen. In my parent coaching programs, I help confused, overwhelmed, invested parents reclaim their relationships with their children and feel confident in their ability to manage the curveballs of adolescence. In my teen workshops, I equip teens with the tools they need to flourish and become the best versions of themselves, all during a time of significant transition. Because the adolescent years can feel isolating -- kids AND sometimes for parents, too, I emphasize positive relationships and community to support and celebrate teens and the adults who care for them.
