RE: Getting Children to Listen? Let Them Choose to Pay Attention

in #parenting6 years ago

You have touched on an important point here. There are way too many people out there, educators included, who seek to change the kid. All kids are capable of paying attention and learning if the environment and parameters suit them and their needs. We need to find ways to actively engage kids and make them want to be part of their learning. I like your comment about asking rather than telling. We can guide them rather than force and have better results.
