[QUOTE="JLady, post: 252835, member: 6439"] The homework battle isn't worth it. When my difficult child "can't" do the work, I too write a note to the teacher. He is in school all day long and pushed constantly at something that is really difficult for him. I'm not going to spend all of our "home" time together doing homework. I give it a reasonable amount of time, 30-40 minutes (he's only in 1st grade) and then we put it up. It doesn't do anyone any good to force feed the information. I've found they don't retain it anyway. One thing I am learning is to choose my battles. Homework isn't one of them. [/QUOTE]
