- Children should not have ANY homework over the weekends at all. This work for the week should have happened in the classroom. Undoubtedly it does not happen tho'. I don;t feel that I should have to do the teaching at home unless the county is willing to dividethe teachers pay with the parents. Sorry, but that is just the way it is.

(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have a son in first and third and the homework they are given is ridiculous. It should not take over 5-10 mins. to complete, not all evening! The teaching should be DONE AT SCHOOL.
