Hi, Sangeetha.  Who can be the best counsellor other than the mother of the child?  If the mother is educated and intelligent enough, she can definitely counsel better than any other counsellor.  The mother is the  real friend, philosopher and guide of the child.  A little patience and inquisitiveness will help the mother to find cause of the naughtiness of the child and make the child to divert his/her attention towards learning. You cannot expect a child to study as per your standards.  Give the child enough time for play and then try to attract towards learning with a better method of education.  Where mischief is, there is intelligence.  Mischief and intelligence go together.  As time passes on, the degree of mischief slowly decreases because of the increase in the level of understanding.  This is a natural process.  Wait for a short time until the child grows six or seven years old.  If you find still that the child is not interested in studies, then consult a good educational counsellor and seek a technical opinion.  Good luck!

You sound like you have good intentions but teach them first that there is alot more to life than sexual pleasure. Make sure they are old enough also to understand what responsibility is because they will most likely remember the pleasure part and forget the responsibility part. Just be very careful and use good judgment.

At the risk of sounding like a preacher, let me say that you shouldn't be studying for any reason except to learn, that is enough. Never work harder on pleasing others than you do on learning what you want to. I realize the current educational system is not much more that a cookie cutter to stamp out as many of the same copies as possible of the same kids. Because of this many of today's young people tend to feel \nnon-unique. For this reason they seek to gain the respect, or gratification of others often at the expense of their own. It is good to want to do well, and it is also nice to get some positive feed-back if you achieve. But never give up your dreams, your needs or your self-respect to achieve any goal. If you do you have become that non-unique person, the one who thinks his/her existence is based on how well they please others. Always do the best you can at whatever you do, that way, even if you fail, you will know you did your best and will have no reason for shame or self pity. You can't be yourself if you imitate someone else.

Your daughter needs to learn to adjust and to be part of a social peer group. Over-achievers and under-achievers tend to be ridiculed by other students. This is part of the school experience. My suggestion to you and to your daughter is for your daughter to become involved, to create friendships and to join social, atheletic, and academic school clubs or write/edit the schools newspaper. I don't think it is overachieving or under-achieving that is the problem that causes other students to ridicule other students. I think it is the tendency of such students to distance themselves from their peers and as a result their peers ridicule them because they feel that the other student is out there. Have your daughter do things with her friends because this will make other students like her much more and be less likely to ridicule her. It will also help her to take such ridicule much better since she will have a social group that she belongs to.

Hi Vashes,\n\nChildren of quite a young age cannot be dealt with force. \nYour daughter needs to start giving respect to her school and studies. This kind of discipline does not sprout all of a sudden. Your child will generally follow your example. Maintain a disciplined decorum in your home. Things like "get up at 6", " Fold your bedspread", "Brush your teeth", "Place your brush in the stand", "eat at the dining table", "study at your study table", etc should be slowly inculcated in her. You should give her own private space where she can maintain her things and also study. This kind of ambience would influence the kid and would help her respect her school and studies. Link her performance with rewards like " a trip to the amusement park", "holiday in a farm", etc. Its a slow process and instead of commanding her to do all these things, estabilish it to her that its her responsibilty to take care of these things.\n\nRegards\nVj

I am sorry to hear about that. I am personally not familiar with schools that cater to children with learning disablilties; I have only heard of one, called The Shriram School but I don't know much about it. There is however, this website that may help. It has a list of schools in the Delhi area that you can look into and see if they are suitable for your brothers.\n\nHope this helps and all the best.

Forced studying is not fun or productive. Get your kids into reading for pleasure. Here are some great books written by James Herriot a British veterinarian:\n\nAll Creatures Great and Small \nAll Things Bright and Beautiful\nAll Things Wise and Wonderful

get them to create something. Drawings, building blocks, games that excite or test their ability to remember, painting, crafts. You can try making them discuss issues. You will be surprised what comes out. If you are facing hyperactive children know that their attention span is very short so a variety of quick games may help. TV is your last resort. They would likely not enjoy the same program anyway. Good luck.

i'm not quite sure what you mean, but I guess it depends on the person. If they are hard working and really want a good grade, then a failure will motivate them not to get an F again. But if they are lazy and really don't care, I guess they would jsut be indifferent and it wouldn't really do anything because they don't study anyways. I know I'm generalzing here, but just common sense..

Don't get carried away with activities extraneous to education.

Have you considered looking for a special school? I know my cousin, who is mildly MR went to a school for MR children and I believe they worked with them as individuals and it helped. Once he transferred to a public school, they also put him in with severely MR and they literally taught him the same thing for the rest o the time he was in school. I would help him with his homework and every year it was the same, it became too easy and boring because all he had to do was take a letter from the alphabet, and write down as many words as he could using that letter. I felt at the special school he was actually learning, while at the public school, they treated him like a nuisance.

first find out what grade level they are reading on by giving them a test i forget what it is called and then find out what they have trouble on (i.e. vowels, long e, etc.) once you have found that out then you can focus on it and in the areas where they are struggling you could come up with a game to help them out and to kinda keep it on a consistant basis.

sometimes there are clubs designed specifically for children with special needs...in england we have a theatre group called "SHED" i think which works mainly with special needs children...i duno if you are in england but ifnot you might have something similar in your area...that way you get free time to study and your kid gets to do something they might enjoy.

oh my!!\n please please try this: instead of taking things away from him make him earn things.  reward him when he has good behaivor.  create a behavior system. \n\nA good example would be make a chart of the things that he would like to do or go.  And tell him he has to have good behaivor and not get into trouble at school for a specific number of day before he will be able to do that.  I can give you many more ideas if you are interested.  just email me at teddybear_1829@yahoo.com\n\nBut the one thing I can tell you is that it will never get better if you make it seem to him that you are just taking things away from him.

Teachers, funding, the govt! pressure, stress, home issues, trauma, depression, teasing from other kids, peer pressure, environment issues, ADD, ADHD, learning disabilities, no motives.... etc... there are a number of reasons for a child to do badly in school. the question is too general.

This is a tough, but fairly common, issue. Obviously, your administration is either clueless or powerless in this matter. A couple things might work. First, I would call the child's parents and ask to meet with them and the child after school. Explain succinctly and directly what the issue is and how they would like to see the matter resolved. Often, however, a child who behaves like this has issues at home, so that may not work. So, I would try to keep him after school with you to help out in the lab or the classroom in some manner. Give him some responsibilities, which could help boost his confidence a little, and engage him one-on-one in whatever topics interest him during this time. You can subtely approach the issue of his behavior, but not in a forceful way. I find that having that kind of relationship with a student can help manage behavior without having to resort to severe disciplinary measures.
