[quote=Anonymous]I need help breaking this cycle. I made the mistake of allowing my child to come home from school and unwind while watching TV or playing on the iPad while having a snack. Afterwards, it’s supposed to be time for homework, but when I say times up, time for homework, she either whines and complains that she wants to play outside/in her room, or rushes through the homework so she can be done and play, and then it’s sloppy. I tried having her run and play first, but she still complains when it’s time to come in. I’ve tried homework with snack first, but she whines for a TV show or the iPad. It’s like she just never wants to sit down and properly do homework. I realize this is my own fault for not starting a routine. How can I break the cycle and get her on a quality homework routine? She’s a first grader, btw. [/quote]
