It's not just about making sure homework gets done. It gives me an opportunity to explain it in a different way if it didn't click with them when the teacher explained it. More importantly, it allows me to teach accountablity and enforce penalties and rewards. My prime directive most days is to make sure I've taught my kids what they need to be healthy, happy, functional young adults once they've left the nest, and homework gives me another opportunity to do just that.
