[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 241313, member: 23"] Our kids use up a lot of energy through out the day being "on," -- trying to control their behavior, participate, learn, work. By the time they get home, they are mentally exhausted. I had this same problem with-my son -- still do but to a lesser extent. The constant homework battle is not a good thing for the home environment. I finally asked his teacher, "How long should the homework take to complete?" In first and 2nd gradew I believe it was 5 or 10 minutes. Ok -- we spent 5 or 10 minutes trying to get it done. If it didn't get done, it had to be done at school. [/QUOTE]
