Question
Hello!
We have three boys, ages 10, 6 and 2. We’re having with my husband questions about what’s the right way to motivate our 2 older boys to be self motivated (the only thing that they seem to be self motivated for is video games and TV even though they have a strict schedule of 1 to max 2 hours per day). But when it comes to sports, music, drawing/painting, we have to be on top of them and we don’t know how to push them to be better/practice/be excellent in the things we’ve enrolled them in. How much pushing is too much? What is the right way to motivate them and teach them to want to be excellent? My husband specially is having a very hard time since he didn’t have a dad and he has always been extremely self-motivated.
Thank you!
Euny.
