        Thank goodness someone understands. I hated homework worse than my kids did. Good teachers don't have to rely on homework!

        actually that isn't true especially for 2nd grade. 8 hours a day is plenty for age 7. Practice is always good.

        I didn't have homework until 6th grade (middle school). We were taught pay attention, respect teachers.

        How much homework does she normally give to her second-graders? How about fewer standardized tests for young children?

        The last sentence in her homework policy makes all the difference.

        Comments summarize societies' problem. Everything black or white. How about REASONABLE homework to reinforce day's lesson?
