She has 30 minutes to play, have a snack, or whatever before starting homework. I started giving her more time recently because I thought that might be the problem. She still really needs an early bedtime, so it's important to get the work done before dinner. Since she sometimes spends 2 hours on homework (it should not take that long, but as I say, an hour is a reasonable estimate if working fast), I can't give her much more time before she starts it. She does have a couple of after-school activities (two a week) but is home by 3 from those.
