[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Older parent (Gen X) of grade schoolers and high schoolers here. While I don't believe in the efficacy of homework for kindergarten through second grade, I do think parents send a poor message to their children by blowing it off. I'd rather turn the homework in late in kindergarten or first grade -- e.g., pace ourselves, if necessary -- than not do the homework at all. Learning how to study is important, and parents set the tone at home with their attitude toward it. Most homework is neither exciting nor fun, but it has to get done. I tell my fifth grader that school is her job. Because it is, for now. Developing good study habits pays off later. [/quote] +1 [/quote]
