[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good for you. You're teaching your kids a very valuable lesson - to prioritize. Unfortunately, I didn't learn that lesson until grad school when I became a nervous wreck because I couldn't keep up with the unreasonable amount of outside reading that professors assigned. I quickly learned to read book reviews instead of the actual book and scan documents rather than read an entire article. It was an absolute necessity, as no one could possibly meet the workload unless they never slept, never ate, or did anything other than read. It's important to teach our kids to be well-rounded individuals. A little homework is fine, but it's absolutely OK to limit the amount that students are expected to do. It's good practice for real life, as they learn to set boundaries and set priorities.[/quote] many do it and have have amazing accomplishments including community service - but you're right. they prioritize.
