Keep the Balance posted by UNKNOWN Posted on Tue Mar 22, 2011 16:17:35 There is an epidemic going on in the schools. It is too much stress due to the increase of homework. Kids are pulled in many different directions with school,sports and other extra-school activities. Also, more students are spending too much time on Facebook and not gong outside just to play ball. Gone are those days when kids walked to the local playground and played some baseball. Now, it is video games and Facebook that they are focusing on. Parents need to help their children put some balance in their lives by limiting all of the activities and not taking all AP classes which will increase the stress. Too much emphasis is placed on the outcome and not what the process is doing to the student. Teach balance and have children take some time each day, just to relax and meditate or go outside and play some ball. 1 comments--Add comment Self-Control is the Key posted by UNKNOWN Posted on Mon Mar 21, 2011 17:14:23 It is important for parents to help their children identify and express their emotions in a positive, assertive way. Children need to be able to identify how they feel and talk about it. Parents need to listen without judgement. This helps prevent anger from building and fighting. Parents need to display the right behavior for children to learn. Children do what they see. Parents can become their children's emotional coach. 0 comments--Add comment Help Your Student Manage Time posted by UNKNOWN Posted on Wed Mar 16, 2011 17:28:23 There is alot of work students have to get done for school. They have after school activities. To get things done and get enough sleep , students need to be organized. How does a student get organized? They must keep an agenda and put things in priority order. They should do the most difficult early on in the afternoon. If they wait too late for the more difficult assignment, they could be too tired to do it. The more organized the student; the more they will get done. Organizing themselves is a necessary skill in life to have. Maybe, being more organized they will get to do a hobby or fulfill a goal they have set for themselves. 0 comments--Add comment See More : << 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 >>	Programs * I Can Achieve Goals * I Can Be Grateful * I Can Be Happy * I Can Be Healthy Through Exercise * I Can Be Positive * I Can Feel Special * I Can Handle Difficult People * I Can Learn From My Mistakes * I Can Relax * I Can Understand My Feelings Could not get questions
