[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mom who did hw with kids all alone- dad did not help. We made it work. It taught them discipline. I expected the h.w. neat or I made them do it over. They could read fluently by pk-4.  Snack, hw then t.v. or playtime. By 1st, they were independent and I only checked it. The teachers praised in class work as well as hw They were upset if they thought they wouldn't get to finish it on time. I find it a white vs. non white issue.[/quote]

Similar experience here, except (immigrant) dad is in charge of HW most days, while I'm in charge of musical instrument practice.  HW must be done properly, not rushed through.  He'll come up with HW if none assigned.  Agree about the cultural aspects--refusing to do HW is more of a white affluent American thing--not all in this group, but definitely a few.  [/quote]

With a high correlation with people who say they to disdain standardized testing, but use low scores as a reason to rule out schools or neighborhoods. [/quote]
