[quote=Anonymous]I feel like I am going insane with my 6th grader with the copious writing and reading assignments every night ESPECIALLY on weekends and then the almost talmudic code of "weight" that is given to certain assignments vs. others. We spend every other day in tears trying to keep up with it all. It really feels like a substitute for actually having the teachers give the kids individual attention in class. The classes are big--25-30 kids. It feels like the teachers teach to the few bright kids who pick it right up--and then the rest are dragged through extensive course material by their parents and or tutors. I am just mentally exhausted by all of this. I have 3 other kids who are in elementary school coming from a JKLM--I don't know what I'll do when the others get there next year. So miserable--it has just destroyed our weekends--there's just no more peaceful family down time.[/quote]
