SH #110: When Your Kid Refuses to Do Something

SH #110: When Your Kid Refuses to Do Something ~
Written by Jamie C. Martin of Simple Homeschool and Introverted Moms

Welcome to a new episode of the Simple Homeschool podcast, continuing this year’s series with my 18-year-old son Jonathan!

Jonathan was homeschooled from K-12th grade/graduation and today we are answering a question we get a LOT: What do you do when your homeschooled child doesn’t want to do an assignment, chore, etc?

When Your Kid Refuses to Do Something

In Episode 110, you’ll hear us discuss:

• How to handle pushback depending on the age of your child (littles, tweens, teens)
• Thoughts on separating academics from household duties
• Why you should go to Thailand and not Bogota (listen in for more context, LOL, it’s a helpful analogy!)
• How Jamie forced Jonathan to take the SAT twice (and what he thinks about that now looking back #meanmom)
