A good thing to keep in mind with teens is that they need to be reminded of what they’re doing or they’ll just slack off. At least from what I’ve seen, it helps if you remind her the importance of high school grades. From what I’ve seen, a lot of the things that mess teens up in school are friends. Some friends are very productive – don’t get me wrong but others are just a terrible influence.

If you really want to help her, set up a schedule for her and make sure that you, or someone else is watching her to see if she does what she is supposed to do until she can handle it on her own. Right now, she isn’t really responsible on her own and she needs help, that doesn’t mean that you’re going to turn into her slave. It means that you’re going to show her how to be responsible and get her work done. When you feel she can handle it, you let her off on her own. It would help to check up once in a while :)

Answer #3

Well She needs to be incuraged… I was never incouraged when I was young till I met this nice teacher, who I still talk to, And she ecuraged me, all it took was for someone to be there for me. To tell me wht was good for me. Meaby reward her. be there for her, because she has you, and she seems to trust you a lot. So encurage her and reward her, let her know all the good stuff that will happened if she gets her grades up and everything. Be there fot her.
