Description: Whose Homework Is It Anyway?
The struggle of homework has been around for generations. We ask the question and we get a non-committal answer and we get frustrated.

Join us as we identify parental role in homework environment, understanding learning styles and fostering a sense of child responsibility.

If you answered yes to any of these questions, congratulations – you’re one of millions of struggling parents going through the exact same thing!!
Single parent Abby Golman is also in this elite group of struggling parents, and through trial and error she has come up with some quick, easy, and surprisingly long-lasting solutions to the chaos. Go from cluttered chaos to peacefully productive.
