I am struggling to get parents involved in the sessions as they tend to do their own thing while I work with the child.

I”ve had parents who are very involved & even take the lead as to asking questions , & I’ve had parents who seem to rather participate at a minimal level. It can be awkward to ask/invite a parent to participate more, especially if they are trying to attend to their other children’s needs or need to make phone calls, etc. I am working on becoming ‘less embarrassed’ to repeatedly ask for parent participation, but I’m trying! For example, the mom may tell the other kids to “get away” from me & my student, but then I encourage them to allow the other kids to be involved & tell them they can be involved as well. It’s a great relief when you have parent(s) who want to be & are actively involved!
