[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear ya.  I have a six year old--SIX YEAR OLD--in first grade (AAAAH!) who puts up a fight with very reasonable homework (not onerous, not "busy work, just 5-10 minutes a pop).

Can't wait to see how this evolves as she moves on up.

[b]Well all I can say is you get back what you put in.  I am ahead of you.  The more you invest in good study habits, the better off you will be[/b].  But it totally and completely sucks.  It is the worst part of parenting.

My experience exactly.  I am so glad I took the time and energy to help my kids develop good habits even if the content was a waste of time.  And, my experience is that once I established the house expectations with the oldest, the rest was a piece of cake.  I have kids for HS to first grade and the biggest issue I have with the younger ones is what time it must be done, not if or how much of it.  [/quote]

Do you mind sharing your approach? [/quote]
