How much do you help your teen/tween with homework? We were warned DS would have a lot of homework this year, especially in math (he's in 7th grade taking pre-algebra). I help him if he asks for help with something specific, but DH sits there practically the whole time with him, then checks each and every problem every night. Apparently DH resents that I don't share in this workload. My take is it is up to the teacher to review the homework (sometimes happens, sometimes doesn't) and DH is doing too much. I work at a university and I want DS to be self-reliant but ask for help when needed, as I deal with helicopter parents all the time. Plus I already went through 7th grade and don't need to repeat it. DH never went to college so has a bit of a different perspective. He's always been much more concerned with DS's homework than me, it is just a lot more volume this year.
