MOS (Moms of sons) understand. You have to choose where to to place your own energy and where to get help. when I did it it was a battle. When the tutor did it it was a neutral third party. Tutor woudl also take them to the library to teach organizing a paper and since they were also a teacher, could talk to other teachers easier. Things harder for me to do without complete resistance. Taking one battle off the table left room to have good conversations about other important things. Worked for us for 3 sons. DD did not need it.
And there was no question my husband could not do it. You have the clashing of old stag young buck going on and anything my husband suggested was immediately rejected.
They did graduate, go on to good schools, not involved with alcohol or drugs. I was entirely happy with the arrangement.
