Parent/Teacher conferences are coming up next week and I had a parent tell me that the reason her daughter isn't performing to her ability is because she, "She just doesn't care." Any advice or tips I can share with mom on how to get a child to "care" about doing well in school? I think it's more than that. Attention is a concern but mom doesn't want to hear about that. Apparently homework is a nightmare. According to mom, they really bump heads at this time. They got into a screaming match about ABC order. The child definitely "rules the house." Any words of wisdom to share with mom would be most appreciated.
