The Homeschooling Experiment: Tips for Parents

Parents have had a lot thrown at them over the past year. Kimball Lewis has seen the impact of these times on families firsthand, as CEO of parenting coaching company Empowering Parents. The website, EmpoweringParents.com, offers guidance to parents dealing with difficult situations, including defiance, lying, backtalk, and lack of laziness.

“We deal with pretty much the full gamut of child behavior problems that make parenting and home life hard,” he said. “I’d say the most common statement we get from parents who reach out to us is, “I’m at my wit’s end with my child; I just don’t know what to do anymore.”

Himself a homeschooling dad, he offers great advice for those in the thick of it.
