It's a huge struggle to get my DS6 (in Kindergarten) to do his homework because it's "boring" (and I have to say I agree, but I don't share that with him!). But some of it is practicing writing his letters and he really does need that. So I do make him do all of the homework. But I also reward him with some computer time for completing the school work.

(By the way, I usually make copies of DS6's homework sheets before he completes them and I give them to DS3 to also do while DS6 does his homework. They are that simple... sigh! Although DS6's teacher is starting to send home some harder math every once in a while... Next year DS6 will likely be in a grade 1-2 split class, so hopefully there will be more challenges. If not, we may homeschool...)
