If you often feel "let down" by your child's behavior, perhaps you have unrealistic expectations. Parents who think in "shoulds" (for example, "My kid should be potty-trained by now") might find it helpful to read up on the matter or to talk to other parents or child development specialists.

Kids' environments have an effect on their behavior, so you might be able to change that behavior by changing the environment. If you find yourself constantly saying "no" to your 2-year-old, look for ways to alter your surroundings so that fewer things are off-limits. This will cause less frustration for both of you.

As your child changes, you'll gradually have to change your parenting style. Chances are, what works with your child now won't work as well in a year or two.

Teens tend to look less to their parents and more to their peers for role models. But continue to provide guidance, encouragement, and appropriate discipline while allowing your teen to earn more independence. And seize every available moment to make a connection!

How can you help your child get motivated in school?
According to the Child Mind Institute, here are are some ways:

1. Get Involved - Sometimes a conversation is better than interrogation
2. Use Reinforcement - There is nothing wrong with rewarding kids for good work.
3. Praise Kids for Following Through especially when things get difficult
4. Help them see the big picture
5. Let them make mistakes - you learn a lot from mistakes
6. Get Outside Help - Sometimes kids get tired of listening to their parents. However, they will listen to someone else tell them the same thing.
