Homework Is The Bain Of My Life

and it is not even my homework!

I don't think kids should have homework.  They are already in school 6 hours a day and there is more to life than school.  They need to have time to be kids and do house work, scouts, church, family activities and other outside interests.

Plus for most of my kids, them having homework or "home learning" as they now call it, means that I have to encourage, nag, police, sit with, review, supervise, correct, etc.  It takes a lot of time and then multiply it by 4 and you can see why I hate homework!
