DD is in y4 and gets her homework on a Friday. Cue a battle ALL weekend about when she's going to do it. Friday after school she says she wants to relax. Fair enough I think as we all do too on a Friday after work. Then take this weekend for example. It's a lovely day. Are we really expected to stay indoors to do homework or are we allowed out to do something as a family? Fwiw we've gone with the latter, but then when is the homework going to be done? She can't do it on get own, she needs either me or DH to be sat with her helping and it's due in on Monday. It should only be 30 mins but when you factor in the arguing and coercing it takes much much longer. I resent the intrusion in our home life tbh.
