What if your child’s grades or behavior are trying to tell you something?

In this episode of Hold My Purse, Rho talks with licensed social worker and school social worker Raynard Nelson about his 10 Keys to Helping Your Student Succeed in School.

They unpack what parents need to know about learning styles, parent-teacher relationships, organization, bullying, accountability, IEPs, 504 plans, student evaluations, and knowing when your child may need additional academic, social, or emotional support.

Raynard also shares his personal experience helping his own son navigate ADHD and school — and why parents sometimes have to let go of fear, pride, or the worry about their child being “labeled” in order to get them the support they need.

Key takeaways:

• Pay attention to how your child learns
• Build relationships with teachers and school staff early
• Don’t be afraid to ask for additional support
• Support and accountability can exist together
• Help kids learn to organize, ask for help, and advocate for themselves
• Make home a safe place for them to tell you when something isn’t right
