The story of the 8 year old girl from Arizona who got
humiliated over homework has gotten national attention. It was recently brought
to my attention that over 63,000 people have commented on this item on a blog,
most of them critical of the parent for not making her child get the homework
done. This highlights clearly why it is so important for parents of
homework-trapped children to have a means to give their children
homework-relief. It also highlights why it is important to support other
efforts, like the national PTA petition, to revise homework policies.
