[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just do not believe you had on AVERAGE 6 hours of work a night.[/quote] My DC uses her free periods at school to do homework, so it's conceivable that a student has 1-2 hours during the school day for homework and then spends 4 more at home. The point I would stress is that not every kind of kid is cut out for this kind of intensity; in fact, I think those that are cut out for it are in the minority, including my kid. I was a fine student in HS (top public that was also a HYPS feeder), but I wanted to spend more of my time hangout out with my friends instead of burning the midnight oil over homework. My kid, though, is incredibly organized and passionate about her studies, traits I'm sure she gets from my husband. Those who are seeking to tap into the "prestige" of the school by forcing their kids to attend when their kids don't have that passion to do it are in for a world of hurt.[/quote]
