DS , 14, just started Yr 10, seems to be doing the absolute minimum homework he can get away with. I think he should be some every night. the school have given us a homework schedule, so we know what to expect roughly, but some evenings he says he has nothing and that's what's in the planner. if he hasnt' any set we feel he should be doing extra, e.g. learning vocabulary if he hasn't got any set homework for french. I'm worried he's coasting along and if the teacher doesn't set something he won't do any extra. We'd nag him more but he's home first in the evening and by the time we get in from work, he says homework is all either done , or he hasn't got any. Is this just normal? What do other people do?
