Why are the parents putting up with that?<br /><br />To all my friends - <i>You</i> are in charge.<br /><br />There were times when my kids were in public school that I thought they were being given too much homework and I told their teachers <i>we would not be doing it</i>.<br /><br />If my kids were misbehaving in class and not completing their school work there, that's a different story. But I was not going to have the school eating up our family time.<br /><br />So we just didn't do it.<br /><br />JulieHerding Grasshoppershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15668974245505544238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7307114766025313443.post-43849167872532919592011-09-14T07:16:47.978-07:002011-09-14T07:16:47.978-07:00I love all the things you do with your boys.

I just heard that hte 3rd graders in our local school district have 2 hours per night, on TOP of their 8 hour school day.
