arrrgh. Hey all. need to let off some steam. DS 6 wants to do no homework, writing, spellings anything basically to do with school work. He rather play. It does get frustrating as i really rather escape this turmoil of having to plead with him other school work. He is fine watching tv and playing with his toys...mention school work and he begins to cry. All i have him do a day is half hour of maths, literacy and genreal studies every other day, which i dont think is a lot at all. We do read daily which he is beginning to enjoy, but any suggestions of how to make school work at home enjoyable. I mean it really is give and take. IS HALF HOUR THAT MUCH???
