You're your son's biggest fan and advocate. You work hard to provide him with the guidance and unique support he needs to grow, learn, and flourish.
It can be overwhelming if you realize your son is:
- Falling behind in school and receiving poor grades
- Displaying a disengaged, unmotivated attitude toward his personal and academic endeavors and goals
- Contending with a learning difference
- Not prospering in his current academic environment
Challenges to boys' education are prevalent in today's classrooms, as conventional, public school systems do not teach to the minds of boys.
If your son is struggling socially or academically, the urgency to find the right resources and solution for him is essential.
