okay, my oldest is six, and her handwriting is horrible, (for a six year old) and at first we were just letting it go thinking that she would eventually get better (advice from teacher), but that wasn't working, so now we resulted in making her do her homework over if it was messy (advice from teacher) which of course results in alot of arguing and tears, (on both parts), so, progress reports came and of course she had a (needs improvement) next to the line for handwriting, so I showed this to her and she said she was sorry, then proceeded to do her homework in messy handwriting, so I proceeded to crumple it up and throw it out...., long story short...has anyone else had this problem? and what did you do about it? when did it finally click in? I'm running out of options, and my fuse is running very very short at homework time, I think there is a feeling of stress before we even sit down to do it, which of course creates a problem in itself..any advice?
