Are you tired of having to nag at your child about getting homework and chores done? Your child is probably tired of listening to your nagging too. In this modern world where distractions abound, you need new strategies as parents to help your child develop good and independent study skills and life habits, rather than relying on a constant stream of verbal reminders that is tiring for both parent and child.
 
Willpower and positive habits take time, effort and consistency to develop, but once built, they can be immensely useful in increasing your child’s mind power to get things done. And the greatest benefit may be to allow you and your child to spend more time enjoying each other’s company rather than fighting over task completion.
 
At the core of willpower is the ability to resist short-term temptations to achieve long-term goals. Join us at this webinar as we explore how willpower develops in the brain and discuss strategies such as habit formation to help your child develop the needed skills to succeed in school and life.
