I disagree somewhat in that I can tell from the homework, and the practice tests they do in reading comprehension and math at home, how Peter's doing in those subjects.
>>as more of a practice of what they learned, not a measuring stick of either involvement or how well a child is doing. << you've been quoted as saying that you don't bug your kid wrt homework as long as he gets a 90 or above. great if doing it himself is how you think he learns responsibility. but that is indeed a measuring device (or stick. my word) that determines your involvement with him.

Very similar here, math, spelling and reading nightly and occasionally science or social studies.
