[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have three options. 1. Convince your spouse to move to Finland. 2. Try and change this system, which is generally, a lot more heterogenous than the population in Finland, so implementation of the same system would probably have very different effects. 3. Stop fantasizing and let your kid do their own homework. That's one reason they give homework, not to force parents to slog it out with their kids, but to teach them responsibility and diligence. If they mess it up , it's their own fault. If they forget to do it, they deal with the consequences. More and more, I am beginning to think the "problems" with our school system is not the system but the parents. [/quote] And what do you suggest when the kid truly has NO IDEA how to do the work? I'm dying to know what you think since you seem to have all the answers.[/quote]
