[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I talk about this quite a bit. My father and grandfather went to the same Ivy. My husband and I went to Ivy-equivalents. None of us had such large degrees of homework as my kids today. We were all highly successful in school and afterwards. We feel that today's homework levels takes away from developing creativity and innovation in my children's generation. You can't really problem solve without time to truly think. Of course, today's cell phones/Internet also take away from this. However, with that said, you need to play the game. Until the whole system changes, you need to put the hours in to get into the same schools today that we got in with an easier work load.[/quote]
