How do I get my child to do homework?

Homework can quickly become a power struggle central. Instead, focus on rhythm and encouragement.

What to do, step by step:

1. Create a calm workspace.
   Quiet, uncluttered, comfortable.
   
2. Set short time blocks.
   Try 15–20 minutes with breaks.
   
3. Praise effort, not perfection.
   “You stayed focused—great job!”
   
4. End with connection.
   Read together or share a snack after finishing.
