[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Slight tangent, but I was so disappointed on the first day of first grade when we were assigned no homework. For some odd reason, I was really looking forward to it. My parents still laugh about it. A lot of homework IS meaningless drivel, but my kid needs to do it. that doesn't mean we can't talk about the fact that it is busy work -- rant away -- but sometimes you need to do dumb/boring/pointless stuff in life. That said, if it's hours of pointless bullshit each night, I'd likely be evaluating whether my kid is in the right place.[/quote] This sums it up well. In general I want my kids to follow rules and learn discipline, even where they don't see the reason or disagree. However, there is a point where I draw the line.[/quote]
