Do your teens do homework with TV on?

My son does a large amount of his homework on the computer.

My kids do their homework differently. Maria waits till the last minute, works at the kitchen table most of the time and is finished rather quickly. JM works mostly in the computer room or his bedroom but always with the music loudly playing...he takes his time. He is rarely challenged by his workload eventhough he's in all honor's classes so he waits till he absolutely cannot stall anymore to get it done right before it's due...I think therein lies the challenge for him. Have you spoken with your guidance counselors at the new school? Clairey

Sometimes my kids have done their homework with the tv on, sometimes not, it really depends on what they're working on.

My DD was always using the computer to IM her friends while doing her HW.
