Once a goal has been set, you need to keep your child motivated to complete it. Your involvement in this process depends on different factors including the age of your child, your child's disposition as a self-starter, and how important the goal is to your child's personal agenda. If a goal is not that exciting to a child, they will need your nudging to accomplish it. If your child thinks a goal is really worthwhile, they may just get it done without your persuasion.
Goals are just as important for kids as they are for adults. You, as the parent, play a major role in teaching your child how to set and accomplish the goals in their life. This course guides you through the goal-setting process to keep your kids motivated.
