Do you think children get a heavy homework from school?

Not usually. However, sometimes she'll give me a hard time. When we do extra curricular activities and she knows they are coming up, she knows that she can not participate until her homework is done. If she has been in school all day, and she has only one page of homework, if she wants to relax a little after school, I do let her sometimes.

No problems at all both my children, ten and six just love school and never complain of homework. My daughter can't wait to get her homework done right after school. Both children are eager to learn and are straint "A" students. Not a heavy load of homework yet anyway.
