The child does not want to learn and no persuasion works. This situation occurs quite often. And it is important for parents to correctly identify the reasons for this reluctance and correct the situation.
Instructions
Step 1
Find out the reasons for the lack of interest in learning. Serious knowledge gaps prevent a child from absorbing new material, and conflicts with peers are unlikely to fuel interest in learning. Talk to teachers. If possible, hire tutors to train your child in certain subjects. Find talented educators who can instill in your child an interest in learning.
Step 2
If your child is doing well in principle, but is extremely unstable due to laziness or lack of interest, promise to reward him for doing well. It can be a trip to the cinema, a trip to the mountains, a child's favorite meal. You can also apply prohibitions as a punishment: deprive him of the right to play computer games, meet with friends until the grades are corrected.
Step 3
Expand the sphere of interests of the child: perhaps historical films will awaken interest in history, a performance - in the study of literature, and the biography of your favorite athlete will inspire to study. Do not expect your child to have equal interest in all school subjects. The humanities student is unlikely to show an increased interest in physics or chemistry.
Step 4
See a psychologist. Poor schooling can also be caused by neuroses, mental trauma, conflicts at school and at home. Perhaps the child is experiencing stress in one form or another. There can be many reasons for the lack of motivation; only a specialist can correctly determine them and suggest the levers of influence on the child.
Step 5
Make sure your child is eating well. Poor nutrition, lack of vitamins lead to a deterioration in brain activity. Sometimes it is enough to go to a doctor to prescribe a course of vitamins, and the problem of unwillingness to learn disappears by itself.
Step 6
Talk with your child more often about the situation at school, do lessons together, discuss the topics being studied. Perhaps he just lacks your attention or is bored of doing homework alone. This is especially true for younger students who would rather play, mess around and dream than do their homework.
