[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. So here is how it breaks down for us. Daughter gets home at 3pm.  3-3:30: chill.  3:30-4:15: Homework, then get ready to go to practice.  4:30-7:15  2+ hour practice plus commute time (10 minutes each way plus some time to chat with friends after). 7:15 to 7:40 ish - change, shower, eat. 7:40 - 8:30:  finish HW. And then wind down for the night.  Really no extra time.  To respond to PP: My question is aimed at those who DO multiple activities, not those who do not.[/quote]

I think with the every night multiple hour sport, there’s no way. We have that some nights but not every night.[/quote]

Why is your 7th grader spending THAT much time on homework??

Can't you give her some extra chill time at the end of the night. Instead of lights out at 830, like you have listed, how about push it to 9pm?

For you, I think you just need to accept that X and Y days, you guys are going to be "busy" so just mentally prep for it knowing there isn't much down time those days. It's a good life lesson too. [/quo

Because if kid is in private school, there is a lot of homework![/quote]
