No interest in studies, but just in play

2017-06-22 05:59:20
My son, 10 yr old, in class 5, has got sharp mind, has been doing good in academics so far. But he needs to be pushed too much to sit and study. He himself is never interested to ensure that he finishes his classwork or homework on time. He does not take studies sincerely. He just wants to play full time (indoor/outdoor).
