Re: 8th grade Girl an A & F Student .... HELP!!!! | | I agree a tad Teresa, Too manyparents did not help in elementary school therefore letting go is all they did before. Few parents are truly involved now a days when both parents work till 5, kids do't get home till 6, dinner at 7 and off to bed soon after. Parents are relying more and more on the after school daycare programs to get homework finished.
My brother is in the Army, in Germany and his son is in 5th grade. He is pretty darn active in the kids school life, but still most homework is done at day care, then my brother just checks over it while he is making dinner. Not enough time in the day sometimes, for these parents to help in the beginning. |
