Motivating Homeschooling Teens
Motivating Homeschooling TeensAuthor: Jennifer K. GrayMany parents approach their child's adolescence with a bit of trepidation. They worry that their child will be so distracted by hormonal and social changes that he or she will tune out parents and disengage from learning.

That can be tricky, depending on the age of your child. Some children will not communicate or refuse to communicate at times. However, if you watch and observe your child, you will find ways to make academic work relevant to the child personally.
