7-day parent check table

When things feel off

If your notes show more confusion than progress, pause new changes immediately. Keep the old routine for two sessions, then return with one new decision.

Parent voice matters most here: one short sentence, one next step, and no extra pressure. Your consistency is the biggest edge you can give your player.

Before you finish, decide which one person owns the plan on any given day. One leader prevents mixed messages.
