As we near the start of a new school year it’s good to remember how important it is to get involved and help your kids learn. But it’s no secret the homework struggle is so very, very real when you’re a parent. We would like to take a moment to acknowledge the hilarious parents on social media who have given spot-on descriptions of the homework process.
The end of homework-free evenings is almost here.
If you suffer from low blood pressure, I have a 2nd grader who needs help with her homework.

Dear people who get through nightly homework without dreaming of leaving their entire family,
You impress me a great deal.

Just helped son with his 6th grade math homework.
Wife tapped out. I'm hoping we get at least a C. The dog is on deck if this goes badly.

My 5yo's homework was to decorate a big, paper 4-leaf clover with things she feels lucky to have.
She drew mac n cheese on all 4 leaves.

Hard to keep up the 'Daddy knows everything' pretence when you score 3 out of 5 on the 4yo's homework.

Something I've learned as a parent is that doing homework sucked when I was a kid, but forcing your own kid do homework sucks so much worse

Parents: don't give your child the answers to his homework. He needs to learn on his own that you don't know what you're talking about.
