Bright kids who couldn't care less : how to rekindle your child's motivation by Braaten, Ellen,
Book
"Keywords: unmotivated, underachieving, underachievers, underperforming, children, parenting, self-help, lazy, teens, adolescents, parents guide, psychology, how to get my child to work harder, anxiety, depression, ADHD, hates school, not interested in anything Description: "He's so smart, but he's no longer interested in school--or any 'offline' activities." "She used to love sports, but now she just mopes around." "My kid has turned into such a slacker!" Over the course of her 25-year career, psychologist and learning expert Ellen Braaten has begun to notice a trend. More and more parents are coming to her because their kids couldn't care less about anything. How do bright, motivated young children become such unmotivated older kids and teens--and what can parents do about it? In this warm and encouraging guide, Dr. Braaten explains that kids who have lost the will to do anything (other than play video games) need more than simple encouragement or the "right" school, teacher, or coach to get back on track. Instead, Dr. Braaten helps parents understand the myriad biological, emotional, cognitive, and social factors that affect motivation--and build a plan to boost their child's confidence, incentive to learn, and engagement in life"--
