trying to bond more w my 13 year old son. I bought Xbox series x with gamepass. I have two controllers as well. is there a good game in game pass we could play together or maybe one I could buy?
he plays Roblox a shooter game and a game Where he builds roller coasters.
My 8th grader gets Ds and Fs and some Cs. I wonder if anyone has had a situation where they had a student somehow turn it around. If so, please tell me about it and what you did.
What we've tried:
- Checking his back pack together every night
- Doing homework together
- Reading together
- Contacting teachers
- Having him ask his teachers for makeup work
None of it works. It might if we had basically a caretaker with him all the time to make sure he turned in his work.
He scores top 1% in all those standardized tests they send home. He is in a 'high performing' public school. I'm wondering if maybe private school would help or if this is just a hopeless situation.
I'm specifically looking for actual experience, not various opinions or theories.
