124: Parenting Q & A with Alyson Schafer

Q1. Should I force my 11 yr old to include their 7 yr old twin siblings in their playdates? Q2. 7yr old grade 2 (who was a premature December baby) wants to see his report card which indicates he is “progressing with difficulty” in all subjects. Do I show him?Q3. Should I pay someone to be a friend for my 14yr old son with Asperger’s who has no friends?Q4. My 7 and 10yr olds make their lunch but still prefer to take the offerings from the fridge in the classroom meant for kids who can’t afford to bring one. If you have a question for me – email me at [email protected] Check out more free parenting advice on my blog at www.alysonschafer.com Sign up for my monthly newsletter at www.alysonschafer.com and receive a free “Home Responsibilities by Age” checklist.
