[quote=Anonymous]OP. I completely agree with you. I could have written your post. Problem is there is no solution until the schools change. Recent studies have indicated that homework (massive amounts) have no benefit before 8th grade. But public and private schools think parents want homework so they assign it. And changing private schools is not going to work. Been there, done that. And public is just more of the same. My kids do nothing but school, homework, church (maybe), and college apps. The system is simply broken - especially when you factor in the fact that via the AP system, colleges have effectively shifted the first year or two (depending on how many AP classes you take) down to the public and private high schools.[/quote]
