[quote=Anonymous]I'll disagree with most on this. But I think structure and rules are important. I'd say, he comes home, has his snack, then it's homework until it is done. Yes, it's painful for you both when he resists. It may take a long time. But set up a good habit. When kids are crushing it in school when they are older, we are so quick to describe them as "so smart" when their success is mostly coming from hard work. That's what's hard to come by. That's what's missing in so many kids. Sorry to all who don't see it this way, but I would push it. Try to be as patient and loving as possible, but explain that some responsibility comes with going to school and this is your expectation.... or don't! It's your family, just sharing my perspective. Good luck![/quote]
