Kids and Homework

SViswan @SViswan (12051) • India 8 Feb 08

Do you sit with your kids as they do their homework? Or do you let them do it on their own and help them when they need you? How important do you think is a parent's involvement in a child's homework?

newfette some suggestions: Bury citrus rinds (grapefruit, orange, lime, lemon, etc) in the soil of your houseplants to keep cats from digging. The rinds will break down (like compost) so replace them time to time. Cats don't like citrus. Also, double-sided tape....
