Back to School - New "School" Year Resolutions

The new school year is a source of anxiety for just about every child, no matter what their age. Start the year off right by creating a list of new school year resolutions. Your children can use this list as a foundation for making important and positive changes in their lives. Resolving to earn better grades, join a sports team or do household chores, without being reminded, will help your child define his/her goals for the next step in their life. Reinforce their commitment by laminating and posting the list someplace visible, and planning a special reward when they have succeeded.
