[quote=Anonymous]Our kid also totally refuses and a worksheet that would be 10 minutes ends up taking an hour plus. It's brutal. We are working with a child psychologist for anxiety and we asked her thoughts on it. She says homework in elementary should only be for the practice of getting used to doing homework and we shouldn't push it. She says to set a timer for 20 minutes for homework. Whatever is accomplished in that time is the homework we do. Just let the teacher know you're using that approach and they can see what is being accomplished in 20 minutes. Timer really helps my kid[/quote]
