Child psychotherapist Dr Colman Noctor and ieParenting editor
Irene Feighan sit down to discuss the pros and cons of homework
for primary school children. 


While some researchers say homework helps children to develop
skills such as organisation, others believe it is
counterproductive.  


Noctor is in the no-homework camp and sees how it impacts his
children in very different ways. He offers guidance on creating
healthy habits and advice for parents of teenagers who have
little interest in studying or completing homework.
