It's basically impossible to do this with the amount of homework assigned to many US kids IMO, parents need to explicitly reclaim their children's time if their teachers won't let them advocate for themselves. "I'm not going to make her do that" is powerfulhttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1226079741620285440 …
Honestly, I'd love to hear a parent say something to the effect of "if you all can't do what you need to do in 7 hours per day, I don't know what to tell you. I know what this kid can do in 30 minutes."
Some days in middle school, I probably did get about five hours of reading in a day, while I was at school. Some great teachers that would look the other way at reading under the desk, as long as you got your work done and aced it.
I'm citing you as authority, when I use this in a couple of years
Talk to me more about it
it’s all not worked, not working or will work ever. Until we figure it out lets safeguard their childhood.Period.
My mom did some version of this and it was helpful.
i don’t see these parents as savvy. they seem really dumb to me. slippery though
My sentiment exactly.
I say that, but to my children, so referring to the school in 3rd person "If they can't teach you in 7 hrs..." The realistic scenario is that you're not usually called to school because your child doesn't do homework. They just get penalized in their grades.
And i wouldn't go to school to argue for their grades with their teachers - it is against one of our main principles of not caring about grades. So I just won't allow them to work more than 30 minutes a day.
To be fair to teachers, they work with classes. As a result, the speed of their teaching is set not by the median child---not even the overall slowest child---but the "slowest envelope", for each thing the child who is slowest at that thing.
Also, they necessarily do one thing to the entire class all at once. Even if they know what would work excellently for a few outliers, they cannot act on that knowledge if it would be a disaster to the rest of the class.
