[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would re-evaluate all my life choices if my kid had 4-5 hours of homework every single night that he or she could not start until 8pm and was getting 6 hours of sleep a night. Seriously bad parenting.[/quote] Agree. And let’s be real here. Even with AP’s and magnets and activities or sports, there is time. Many instructors give 10-15min to start HW in school. There is lunch to get extra help, many kids in activities outside of school take a free period to do work. If they are utilizing time in school, there is less work at home. If they want to de-stress and socialize during free time that’s great too. But buckle down when you get home. And if your child is utilizing all their time, not using their phone (do you check their app times and phone times nightly?) and is still working until 1am - they are in over their head and YOU as a parent need to step in and say this is too much. Let’s scale back. To think some of you think 4-5 hours of homework and 5-6 hours of sleep each night is a good thing. Ick. Do better [/quote]
