Outstanding

When you are always busy playing.  And when forbidden to use the iPad due to too much outstanding homework, you do this...


And do this every time someone asks you to do homework....


Also this...

Then you will have loads of homework outstanding which makes you cry when you think about it.

This is what's happening to SE.  She has cried a few times since starting school (which has been... ONE week only).  We have a plan to catch up on homework tonight.  Will see how it goes.

  1. Delaying her homework will cause the homework to pile up. Must think of something to cause her to willingly finish her homework by herself. Probably she is finding her homework boring.

    1. Yeah vicious cycle. The more homework piles up, the more unhappy she gets. At this age she doesn't get it yet that unpleasant things have to be done or they will just lie in wait.

  2. Fingers crossed that she does her homework willingly. Guess you must think of a plan for homework to be done everyday. Good luck!

    1. Tough. She will grumble and dawdle for much longer than it takes to actually do the work.
