[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter went to schools Pre-K to 12 that encouraged parents not to review homework, not even for editing. The philosophy was teachers could help them better if they knew the work was solely the work of the student. I was thankful for that philosophy. Following in that same mode, DD submitted both college essays without letting me see them even though I offered to review. I was very nervous; however, she is a good and confident writer. Admitted to Harvard and Yale this year. [/quote] That is different. It is part of the learning process to get comments back from the teacher on a students own work. There is no benefit to not having a second set of eyes on a final draft before it goes out. Sounds like she was successful but wouldn't it have been a shame if there was 1 overlooked mistyped word that changed the outcome.[/quote]
