Or in the morning before school?
I always let the DC's chill out for about an hour before mentioning homework. They currently only have about 10 mins worth usually. But a friend of mine with teenagers said I was MAKING A ROD FOR MY OWN BACK because when they are older, they won't do their homework - when they get in from school, they are still in school mode and should get it over with. If they sit down and relax, they won't want to do it for the rest of the evening.
So, what do you think? Should I take pre-emptive action now and get them into the habit of getting homework done asap or ignore her?

When should older children do their homework? Straight away when they get back from school, or after dinner?
