[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 466110, member: 1169"] Schools will tell you LOTS of things that "cannot be done". Many of them not only CAN be done, but are LEGALLY required to be done. If the school is denying something that you feel your child needs to suceed, check on [URL="http://www.wrightslaw.com"]www.wrightslaw.com[/URL] for the most up to date legal info. That being said, I would suggest setting a time limit for homework (30 minutes-ish). Let your son know that the two of you will spend 30 minutes working on homework and then he can done. Staple a letter of explanation to any undne homework. "difficult child worked diligently on his homework last night. He was unable to complete this work as he did not grasp the material presented in class. Please reteach so that he understands. Thank you, Mrs. Remclick" Just printed out a bunch and eventually the teachers may get the point. Yes, they may give him zeros and his grades may all become Ds and Fs. So what. It is vital that the teachers understand where his educational weaknesses are. Unless you plan on reteaching him everything through high school..... [/QUOTE]
