[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Homework is good to start them understanding its an expectation. We got it weekly so you could space it out over the week. Give the kid a snack or meal, then sit down with them and get it done. Do it together. [/quote] Lamest advice ever. If a kindergartener is crying over it every night, it's not going to get done.[/quote] I do wonder why she is so stressed. My child had homework but other than reading, it really takes a few minutes a day. If the homework cannot realistically be done very fast, you need to take it up with the teacher and principal. If that is not the case, you need to find out why your daughter is so resistant. [/quote] At 5, it could just be a maturity issue. Likely, she'll be fine in another year or two. Maybe even in another couple months. Kids develop differently, and 5 is very young. [/quote]
