I think the schools are giving more homework now, and earlier. I feel so bad for parents who work full time...it's like you're in school all over again, too.

When he first started in middle school, it was a nightmare. The homework usually took 3 hours a night. But once he adjusted to everything, we got it down to about an hour or so. I was so excited this week-end because I was actually able to help him with his math! Somehow I have a feeling
that won't last very long.
