They wanted to absorb their lessons?\n\nThey were hungry?

Basic, nutritious, unprocessed food is not expensive. If children go hungry, it is because their lazy parient/s spend money on smokes, booze, drugs and gambling.

A good question. I have been reported several times for telling kids to do their own homework.\n\nI really hate it when they will not read a book and want Answerers to report on it for them\n\nI think it is okay if someone needs some help but not to get on here and expect us to write a paper for them or do an analysis or write a poem\n\nI just refuse to answer those questions anymore

because the snacks are delicious.  if schools remove vending machines, kids are still going to the market or fast food restaurants before/after school to buy deliciouslness.

Teachers try to give homework that will either reinforce what you have been doing in class (more practice), help you to find out things on your own (research papers, book reports) and for themselves, to find out what it is you don't understand!  Very often the student will understand how to do the work in class, but when they get it home, they no longer can remember the new process.  Then the teacher can try to teach it again, using a different explanation. (That's why I only grade most homework--not research projects, but practice work--for valient effort (you really tried), not perfection.  I use the tests to see if you got it.  Generally the students who try all the homework and come back with good questions get the best grades on the test.  They know they understand the material and can do the work without help.)\ngood luck on your hard homework.  I hope you start to understand it so well that it's easy!

I think they are short-sighted, rescuing their kids from the difficulty of homework now at the expense of the children being able to learn on their own later on.  The same goes for kids who come on this website looking for answers that they can just copy down verbatim, instead of just getting a push in the right direction.  \n\nThat said, I think a lot of the homework teachers assign these days is busywork, something for the kids who catch on quickly to do while the teacher works with the struggling kids.  I also think that teachers assign unrealistic projects to the kids.  I can't believe they really expect a 5th grade kid to "construct an authentic log cabin without using lincoln logs, demonstrating 6 features from the novel" (one of the assignments my son got this year), without some parental help.  \n\nIn things like this, I try very hard to let my kids do what they can do themselves, and only step in when adult assistance as needed.  As a result, our projects are often a bit cruder than some of the kids who had parents do it all, but I comfort myself with the knowledge that my kids learned a lot more from the project.

It was how they were rasied and it is also a personality trait. The sliver spoon in their mouth. They are spoiled.

Homework is work assigned by a teacher, school or other educational institution, to be completed by the student at home or while not attending class. The term is generally used to refer to primary or secondary school assignments as opposed to college-level coursework.\n\nMany students find homework to be an undue burden, while schools and teachers generally insist that it is necessary to practice new skills and to better learn material.\n\nRather than doing their own work, some students plagiarize or shirk their requirements (for example, by using Cliffs Notes instead of reading a book). If they are caught, punishments can range from a warning to expulsion from the institution, depending upon the school's policies and the severity of the infraction. See school discipline.\n\nIn recent years, there has been some backlash about the amount of homework assigned. Some statistics show that homework has nearly doubled for children since their grandparents' time. In some cases, several hours of work may be assigned every day, leading to incomplete or mediocre work and overstressed students. The worst cases may actually cause children to develop mental problems. In response to such concerns, some schools have instituted policies lessening the homework load and requiring teachers to coordinate when assigning large, long-term projects.\n\nLike most educational-related work, homework can become a bigger burden as circumstances change. One of the worst and most dramatic increases of student workload was during the Cold War. For a period of time, the United States government was pushing large amounts of science and mathematics on children in hopes of having greater technological skills at America's command.\n\nStudents who fail to do their homework employ a various range of excuses, the most clichéd being "The dog ate it". In cartoons, main characters actually have their homework eaten on various occasion, but the teacher fails to believe them, leading on a wild goose chase to actually prove it.\n\nSome public and private schools use a homework hotline which states the homework for the day. It can either be a telephone number that can be called up, or it may be a website that a student can go to.

There is a relationship between boredom and hunger.  Your homework probably bores you.  Keep carrot sticks nearby.

You ate something called "froes"... That's what wrong with the meal... what the heck are "froes"?  Why don't you eat a 2nd grade spelling book and see if that helps you digest your "froes"...   8-)

It's complicated. Teachers need to find the balance between installing good values while not contradicting what the children are taught at home. I would say that teachers should protect the children from harm when they are in their care. Although the teachers can educate the children on healthy eating, they can not control what parents actually choose to feed them.

The answer is in your question, they are spoiled children!

I can think of several different reasons:\n\n1. If doing the homework is too much effect, the same is probably true of choosing a best answer.\n\n2. Maybe, when they fail the tests because they don't have a clue how to get the answer themselves, they blame the answerer.\n\n3. Ungrateful.\n\n4. There are users and givers in this country - these are examples of the former. \n\nI'm sure you can even think of more possible reasons.

In school, I hated doing homework. I would do it on the bus on the way to school. I had too many other things at home that I thought were more important or at least more fun. I got good grades because I paid attention in class and most of the teachers took their tests from what was discussed in class.  \n   My breakthrough was when my father explained the "peanut butter sandwich syndrome". I love peanut butter sandwiches, but I hate the crust. I was told at an early age that I had to eat the crusts or I couldn't have them at all. Finally I developed the habit of eating the crusts first to get it over with.\n I did it automatically every time I ate a peanut butter sandwich. One day in High School, my dad pointed this out to me and asked me why I did it. I explained to him the reason. He said there were a lot of things in life that I wouldn't like to do and I should treat them like that sandwich, get the worst of it over and enjoy the rest...like homework. That changed my study habits around enough for me to graduate in the top ten percent of my class. \n   Is there maybe something in your teenagers life like my peanut butter sandwich? Something they've been doing since a child to get the worst over with first and enjoy the rest?... maybe eating vegetables? If so, use it as a analogy to doing homework. Get it over so you can enjoy the rest.
