I have always been wondering who does more work the teachers,the parents,or the kids???The teachers and the kids have homework every night and they have a lot of homework to do.But the parents have to do homework occasionly and the kids come home sometimes with stacks of papers for the parents.Also when parents get a new job they come home with a years supply of papers for homework that is easy.Parnets also have to help their kids with homework.I have always wondered who had more homework.If you know could you please tell me!!!Thank you!!!

I would say that the children have the most amount of homework to do. I say this because they have to read the chapter (which is very time consuming) before doing the vocabulary words and end of chapter questions. Once they read the question, they need to go back to make sure the answer they wrote is the correct answer.
I disagree with the people who say teachers have the most amount of homework because they have the answer key in order to grade the student's papers.
Parents, I think are somewhere in between. They have to help the student with special projects, take the child to the library for research for a paper, and often times, will help to construct a (for lack of better words) display. They also have to gather the necessary materials needed for the display, and will run the homework to the child if they forgot it at home.

Teachers do more. The kids each do their own, but teachers have to read/grade each kid's homework, classwork, tests/quizzes as well as prepare for the lessons of the day. Parents should NOT be doing any homework! They should be helping their children occassionally. They should check for completness or explain when the child struggles. The only real nightly homework the parent should be doing is reading or listening to their child read each night.
Now, if you mean the papers parents must complete for students to be in school (contact forms, emergency forms, etc). That's not as much as you'd think. Most forms that parents are asked to complete are just that, forms. They don't require much thought, unless you dont' know your phone number.

The teacher does more homework because she has to read and grade everyone's assignment. Kids only have to worry about their own. Parents help occasionally.

Teachers of course in case a teacher teaches more than one class, in case he only gives one , then you of course. I do not think parents should even be in the list, at least my parents; they have never done a homework for me!

i would say all of them, cuz the teachers have to grade the papers as well as give the assignment, kids to copy down the assignment as well as do it, parents to help the kids with the assignment and to teach kids to double check their work.
