Thanks, all helpful tips...though I don't have Parenthood so I can't utilize the doctor kit.
I do use the focusing environment for kids and homework, every day they come home, watch a little TV on the plasma television in the dining room until their fun goes up, and then do their homework at the dining room table. But for some reason I never thought about doing that for the mental skill! (Probably because I don't manipulate the mood environment for my kids working on the motor or creativity skills either)
