balance of life, what a kid wants and need-
some time with friends, family, planned activities, time to read, draw, do nothing and not too scheduled. how to get the most out of your summer time, I'm thinking about habits of highly effective families and making the most of ones time.
surviving a less than challenging school situation takes lots of self control, appropriate manipulates to survice the lectures, activities to bring into school, talking with struggling classmates appropriately
I rambled at bit but I hope this helps. Good Luck with your efforts.
