Have you ever tried to help your son or daughter with their homework or a school project? In elementary school it’s pretty easy, but once your child enters middle school or high school, it starts getting a lot harder. Even if you know how to balance a quadratic equation, getting your son or daughter to work with you patiently isn’t a fun task for any parent.
