[blparent] homework strategies

[Kimsan]

Hi,
So, everyone, if not most have  posted info on the ages of their children.
I'm very big on direct support with my children, reading, writing, helping
with homework.
Other things I do with my children are: bike ride, play basketball, and
whatever my vision allows, as I am blind as a bat, but with my lack of
vision, I attempt to demonstrate to my girls that my lack of vision
shouldn't be a reason why I can't get things done.  I also have severe
hearing loss, which has been challenging lately, but just with the
blindness, I will adapt and conquer.

I work full time as a braille transcriber, and I also run my own business,
so, with the aforementioned, eventually, I think I will have made my point
smile.
I'm just curious, with how it's such a visual world, and it might just be me
not knowing, but what approach other blind parents take when helping
children with their homework, let's say, math?
Thank you.

Hi Dawn,

I see we have some things in common....

I am blind, well severely limited in my vision.

I have three boys also, almost the same ages. Mine are 12, 15, and 18.  

Maybe we can connect and share stories.

about the Blparent List/Group, and I'm looking forward to reading and
sharing experiences and ideas and connecting with other blind parents.
Happy New Year!
