About the Book

Neil McNerney, a licensed counselor and parenting expert, will show you ways to help your child do better in school without arguments, yelling, or guilt. In his 25 years working with school-age children and their parents, Neil McNerney has developed a simple and powerful approach that will increase achievement and decrease aggravation! HOMEWORK: A Parent's Guide to Helping Out Without Freaking Out! will guide you through a simple process to find a way to help your child based on which faulty coping pattern your child is using. Most homework books are focused on study techniques. Homework focuses on how parents can be powerful leaders in their kid's education. It answers the most common questions parents ask: When do I reward and when do I punish? How do I give advice about studying without getting backtalk? How much should I review homework? How do I help my stressed out child who takes school too seriously? What do I say when my child says "I don't care" about school? How do I help my disorganized child without feeling like I am his secretary? Praise for Homework "Whether you have an anxious, disorganized or defiant child when it comes to doing schoolwork, McNerney's C.A.L.M. method allows you to tailor your intervention to the specific style of your child. A great way to avoid nightly homework wars!" - Thomas W. Phelan, PhD, author of Surviving Your Adolescents "Neil is a gifted communicator, able to introduce ideas in a way that make perfect sense out of complicated dynamics, and leaves parents feeling renewed and ready for action. Neil is a professional worth watching and learning from. I know I have." - Hal Runkel, NY Times bestselling author of ScreamFree Parenting "I've never read a book like this one I will keep it on my professional shelf & continue to recommend to parents and professionals. Thanks for the gem of a book, Neil McNerney! No wonder its flying off shelves!!" - Laura Chernow, Book Reviewer for The Purcellville Gazette
About the Author: As a school counselor, and a licensed counselor in private practice, I have seen many kids and their parents struggle with life issues. In the last twenty years I have developed techniques that have helped hundreds of families deal with issues of motivation, student stress, disorganization, and a number of other things that get in the way of doing well in life. A Little Background: I received my Master of Education degree in 1988 from James Madison University and my Post-Master's Certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy in 1994 from Virginia Tech. From 1988 until 1995 I was an elementary school counselor for Fairfax County, VA where I gained a ton of skills on how to help children and families. Faculty Member I am a member of the Marriage and Family Therapy faculty at the Virginia Tech Graduate School, where I teach a course on how to counsel children and teenagers.
