A lady

A lady
has a problem with her daughter.
“My nine-year-old daughter is in Grade Four.Every evening we get into an argument about her homework.
Three afternoons a week,she has activities (netball,singing) after school and when we get home,homework is the last thing she feels like doing.The other two days,she got home early and we argued about whether she should do her homework right after school,or whether she should have some time to rest and play first.When Maria at last sat down to do her homework,she seemed to want me to be there all the time.But I had something else to do.It seems that children these days have much more homework than we did,and some of it is really difficult for them.As you can see,I’m really worried about her homework and I really don’t know what I should do.Any ideas?”
