[quote=Anonymous]When my kids were in elementary it would never have occurred to me to throw out or have my kids not do his/her homework. DH and I are rule-followers generally and have tried to instill in our kids a respect for teachers and school generally. Having said this, my kids are in college now and many years of stupid, makework assignments, pointless school policies on things like excused absences, testing, etc. has soured me a bit on education. Knowing what I know now I would be somewhat more inclined to make up my own mind about when it's okay to not do the homework or other assignments. Rules are important, but they can lose legitimacy when unreasonable.[/quote]
