so how do i get them to learn to take advice? I try so hard to show them the easy way and they dont grab on. Shey failed 2 classes so she only got 2 credits this 1/2 of the year. Lucas, the same....it is so hard to see your child fail at something just because they are too lazy. All they care about is the video games, or the phone and iPod. It makes me feel like I am failing them. What do I do?? Where do I go from here? How do i show htem that they really are hurting themsleves. They are putting their future at stake. I know kids dont look into the future. Well not all kids. But I just dont know what else to do. I need advice myself. I feel that i need help.
