Hi my friends, do you have a nephew in your home?Is he a naughty boy? As far as I am concerned, I think I just have a naughty nephew,who usually does a lot kinds of naughty things,which made we just can bear him any more. At the moment, my sister asked me to teach her son,just want his grade can be better. I must say here that his grade is so poor so far. So when I am teaching him. I feel so difficult to communicate with him. I ask him a question, then he will ask back. What can I deal with him? I am confused by him a lot!

I had a very naughty nephew,he is 6 years old and is living with us now. I also had hard experience dealing with his studies. He is not too interested with studying and only wants to play computer games. One thing i did is,i deal with him. One hour study and 1 hour computer games. Now he is improving with his reading skills. Also,computer teach him some words when he need to type for games on facebook games. It is not easy to deal with little kids ,it needs a lot of perseverance and also some tactics.

The best way to deal with this is to leave the child alone until his own parents teach him some respect. You are not his parent so this is not your responsibility. Show your sister and your nephew that this is not okay with you. If he doesn't want to listen and learn, so what? It's not detrimental for you! It's his loss! So just leave him be! If your sister hates you for this, it's not your fault because HE IS NOT YOUR CHILD! He obviously needs to be disciplined by his own Mother and Father. Don't feel responsible for anything. Tell your sister to talk to her son. If he wants to learn, he needs to behave and listen to you. You're not even paid for that. You're also not a Nanny, nor a Paid Tutor.

I don't have any nephews yet, but I do have two nieces and both of them are naughty in their own ways. The youngest one, is the most naughty in my opinion. You see, she is less than two years younger than my son and her sister and she is always trying to do everything that the two of them do and it leads to a lot of near catastrophes in our home. She is a wild child and I think that is due in no small part to the fact that when she is at home her parents don't pay a lot of attention to her.
