What is our goal as a parent? For most, they simply want to raise their kids to be competent adults. Sometimes that can seem like an overwhelming task, especially when our child doesn’t seem to be motivated to do anything! Competence is one of the key components for motivation. When people don’t feel adequate in their ability to complete a task, they are significantly less motivated to even start that task.
