As a mom of two kids one 12 and the other 4, I have realized that all kids are different. My daughter will do her homework after coming back from playing in the evening and she has been that way since she started school and my son wants to get it done the minute he's back from school. I have tried to get my daughter to do her homework as soon as she is back from school, after she's had her lunch but to no avail. So now i let her be.
