I can remember my dad writing the final draft of my paper for me once in elementary school when I broke my arm, but it was already done and just needed a pretty final copy (remember writing out papers?!). He also helped quiz me a few times after I had studied for a test, and would help with big 3D projects while I was still in elementary. Beyond that, I was on my own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870584 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 15:38:21 +0000 Espion 1870584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, they wouldn't have had a clue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870581 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 15:35:33 +0000 cyndistar3 1870581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my dad helped me with math a couple times in high school other than that no, I never really needed much help. Dh and I help lo with her "homework" and since we are guardians of my 15 year old sister we help her with her homework too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870576 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 15:30:02 +0000 Boogs 1870576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, they didn't know how to do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870447 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 14:19:53 +0000 Caly 1870447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They both did. I was homeschooled til high school and they still helped me then. My younger sister is in college &amp; my dad regularly helps her. He enjoys it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870383 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 13:44:34 +0000 Alivoo01 1870383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dad - yes. Mom - no.</p> <p>My dad is absolutely brilliant. He even helped me on my homework in college! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870365 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 13:37:07 +0000 Honeydew 1870365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad tried to help me with homework. He really didn't help much, I'd end up being more confused because his methods were different than the ones we were learning in school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870312 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 13:17:42 +0000 Raindrop 1870312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to say they probably did when I was in elementary school but I don't remember. By middle school I surpassed any knowledge they might have of the subjects but they did encourage me not to procrastinate which I still did.</p> <p>My DH on the other hand... my in-laws tells stories all the time how he would trick them into doing his homework for him. It took them a while to figure out he was bored and not challenged, finally they had him skip some grades to finally get him motivated and engaged. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870188 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 12:07:52 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1870188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not unless we asked them for help, but they didn't really need to - both my sister and I were mostly straight-A students and were good about doing required homework on our own. I learned early that if I didn't turn in homework, then I got a bad grade and I didn't want that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870125 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 11:33:25 +0000 Aimed 1870125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very, very little. Education was not a focus for my family though. I plan to be pretty different in this area - not that I plan to do his homework, but education will be a priority in our house! It is actually one of the reasons I am considering being a SAHM or owrking PT once LO starts school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1870110 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 11:26:07 +0000 jedeve 1870110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't need much help. But my mom was still very involved. She did help a lot with my science fair projects. More making sure my display was neat and all that stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869991 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 10:20:31 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1869991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom always checked it to make sure I did it all right and if I made a mistake I had to fix it. I remember she had to help me with my mission project (CA thing) in 5th grade - that was a PITA! Once I got into middle school I think she stopped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869983 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 10:18:02 +0000 snowjewelz 1869983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom tutored me! </p> <p>I hope I am still "with it" enough to help my kids with homework... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869922 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 09:48:49 +0000 Maysprout 1869922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They sometimes had more things to teach based on what we were learning. They were both teachers and I loved math and reading so it worked out. I remember crying about art projects though. I had no idea what to do or think everything looked really bad when I put it together. So one of them usually figured out how to cool my jets or help out with artsy stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869666 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 07:11:00 +0000 Andrea 1869666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They helped me with my Mandarin homework! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869655 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:59:59 +0000 looch 1869655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a lot of trouble learning my times tables when I was in third grade, so my dad helped me with that. He never did the homework for me, but he did look at what was being asked and then devised a plan for me to learn it, with drills.</p> <p>Everything else, I did myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869601 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 05:10:53 +0000 SleepyMonkey 1869601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never.

My dad was an immigrant who dropped out of school very early, and his English has never been great. My mom dealt with a lot of illness, so she wasn't really available. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869598 Fri, 19 Sep 2014 04:16:11 +0000 yin 1869598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I had to ask my sisters for help if I needed it. Most of the time they were too busy though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869240 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:08:43 +0000 littleveesmommy 1869240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents worked late hours and were never home until dinner time (my grandmother took care of us). We were all responsible for getting our own homework done and knew no other way. I see the homework that every preschoolers get these days and can't remember it ever being so involved. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869233 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:06:28 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1869233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't need much help.

He enjoyed it and I appreciated it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869213 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 20:01:02 +0000 Synchronicity 1869213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom helped with art projects, poster boards and that sort of thing when I was pretty young. Dad helped me out once or twice with math homework. In general I was extremely independent, though, and never really needed homework help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869208 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:57:46 +0000 mrs. bird 1869208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>they didn't growing up, but they do now :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-help-you-with-your-homework#post-1869200 Thu, 18 Sep 2014 19:56:45 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1869200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not ever. But I have to do Charlie's homework all the time! Why they give such labor intensive projects that require are beyond me.</p> <p>I definitely see us helping Charlie with his homework beyond these kid projects though as he gets older! I want to be involved. But Mr. Bee will have to handle the math!</p> <p>Did your parents help you with your homework? </p>
