I'm really struggling with my son when it comes to studying. Every time I ask him to focus on his studies, he starts crying and becomes extremely impatient. It seems like he's not at all interested, and he lacks the patience to learn anything new. Because of this, he isn't able to do things properly and often won't even attempt them. How can I help him become more interested and patient with learning?
