Helping your child with homework shouldn’t feel like a second shift at work. And yet, for many parents, it does — especially when the assignments dive into math, science, coding, or even a new language, and your own experience with those subjects feels far away. But your role doesn’t have to be technical or time-consuming to matter. You’re not there to reteach the lesson — you’re there to make space for effort, mistakes, and growth. What kids need most isn’t expertise.
