it seems like people in this community are lazy and whine when they have a little homework

Funny Cym that you should mention that.
When my kids were in private school, there was hardly any homework. Still I did hear lots of parents complaining about huge amounts of it. Go figure...

Now my kids do have quite a bit of homework, but it is a good homework. Daily math exercises, weekly essays, spelling words etc. They are busy, some days (Thursdays!!!) more than I would like them to be, but they have to make an effort to complete it.
H and I just got back from a concert (Turtle Island Quartet) and both kids were still up polishing their essays. It is Thursday!
