Summer "Do List" for parents

Here are some very special tips for parents over the summer break

• Provide some structure to the summer by keeping some school year rules in place
• Even though it's later, stick to a bed time
• Same goes for a wake up time
• Keep chores assigned
• Have extra project jobs for extra cash or rewards
• Get a library card
• VERY IMPORTANT-- If you are thinking about taking your child off medication for the summer, you must discuss the idea with your health provider. Most medications must be slowly stopped over a period of time.
