[quote=Anonymous]As some posters suggested, it could be a developmental issue with the kid—ADHD, OCD, mild dyslexia, or something else. I recommend focusing on getting the child tested. Homework requirements at FCPS elementary schools changed this year, and they are now required to assign homework. Many teachers give a long list and expect students to do what they can or want. I have four kids from 3rd to 8th grade in the Mclean-Haycock pyramid, and none of them (including the 8th grader) is doing 4 to 5 hours of homework daily. I find this extremely hard to believe, and if those time estimates are accurate, I suspect a learning disability as the underlying issue (especially if he's not wasting time and diligently working throughout the 4 to 5 hours). Go get him checked out, OP. [/quote]
