I know this is a relatively 'hot topic.' I hear many children are overloaded and that homework that is assigned isn't that helpful. Do you think homework should be optional in grade school like it is in college? How many hours of homework do you or your child do a day? any thoughts are welcome!!!

I am writing an essay about Emerson's poetry. My thesis was: Common characteristics of Emerson's potry include subject of nater, subject of religion, and rhyming.
My teacher circled "rhyming" and wrote "That's pretty narrow. Perhaps you should broaden to traditional verse forms"
So should I just change "rhyming" to "traditional verse forms"? Can I still just write about rhyming in that paragraph?
What does "traditional verse forms" mean exactly?

I know the smart answer would be that you couldnt tell what kind of music they listin to, but to your opinion, and I know you have one what kind of music do you think they listin to.

Does anyone in the UK teach at home.
What age did you start teaching your child?
What reasons did you have for choosing this option??
Do you find it hard and do you think you made the right decision?? Do you get help??
I'm asking this because I am looking into homeschooling my 13 yr old son who is on the Autistic Scale.
He is bullied terribly at school (mainstream) and is so unhappy.
The school is useless when it comes to bullying, and I don't want my son to remember his schooling for all the wrong reasons.
I am just trying to find out as much as I can to make sure I am doing the right thing.
Thanks in advance.

I am aware that I can apply for a Pell grant as we are very low income. My grades are not excellent, but all a, and B's but one F (science/biology). I do not want to have a student loan hanging over my head all my life. I am hoping to go into phychology, but I have no idea where I can go to get the best education for that, and where I can get a grant that will include my living expenses and on campus housing. is that even possible? Are there any scholarships that I can apply for now when I am a sophomore...I am just really nervous that things won't all come together in time...Any help you can offer will be really appreciated. PS. I am aware of the Upromise program, and fastweb. Thank you!
