[quote=Anonymous]Immigrant mom here with several school age nieces and nephews overseas ( one of the Levantine countries ) . Kids there have significantly more homework than US kids. I’d say in middle school/ highschool , 3-4 hours of homework in the afternoon is the norm. Of course kids do extracurricular activities such as sports, play a musical instrument, dance … but those are purely for the child’s enjoyment and don’t usually play a role in college admissions. Weekends are spent studying / doing some extracurriculars and Sundays are mostly spent with extended family [/quote]
