The teen years are a period of transition for parents. We start walking that fine line of encouraging them to be independent, manage their own needs and set realistic goals for themselves while we sit on the sidelines and fight the urge to get involved. This is especially true when it comes to school. But how do you prepare your teen for academic success so that you can minimize your involvement and let them take the lead?
