Talk to your teen about how to prioritize activities, based on his values and commitments. A basketball game, birthday party, and church activity may all coincide. Help your teen prioritize activities. It's common for teens to have conflicts in their schedules.Whether she wants to exercise for 30 minutes 3 times each week or she decides to apply for scholarships one Saturday afternoon each month, goal setting is a great way to help her manage her time. Then, help her identify how much time she'll need to work on that goal each day. Talk to your teen about the personal goals she wants to reach. Talk about the importance of creating a schedule and using lists to prioritize his time wisely. Whether it's a planner that your teen writes everything in or an app that manages your teen's schedule, help your teen find the tools that will work best for him. Once he gets into the routine of doing things in a certain order, he won't have to waste time thinking about what to do next.
But, telling your teen to do his homework or his chores over and over again, reduces his responsibility. Avoid nagging. It can be tempting to nag your teen or offer repeat reminders.Encourage him to schedule free time as well, so time doesn't idly pass without feeling like he hasn't done anything fun. Teach him to schedule his day so he can set aside time for chores, homework, and other responsibilities.
