I tend to persist with what I think is reasonable for a few weeks. If he's still not toeing the line at that point, I rethink. Maybe I'm expecting too much.

I did up the level and amount of work I expect this year. It is possible I went too far. But I'm not going to back down yet.

How much independent "homework" time would you give to an 8yo HG+ boy who has been homeschooling for about 2 years? I wonder if I'm asking too much.

Maybe you all can help me find that give and take line! smile
