[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 142495, member: 1169"] I don't fight the homework wars. My children are generally assigned teachers that do not give a lot of homework because it is in their IEPs that I will provide space and time to do homework but I will not teach anything the teacher's failed to teach in school and I will not do the homework. I've had teacher's tell me that then they get a zero, I simply refer them to the IEP that says no penalty for undone homework. Prior to getting that into the IEP, I simply said "fine". Grade school grades are irrelevant, especially for kiddos like ours. Eeyore started out with Ds and Fs and complete homework refusal. Now in 5th grade, he has almost straight As (that darn B in science!) and he does his homework independently almost every night (less than 1 missing assignment per month!). It became his responsibility and his choice. [/QUOTE]
