I usually don't, at least not at the beginning of the school year. My kids are just starting to get used to the concept and I don't want to overwhelm them.

I try to avoid weekend homework for mostly selfish reasons. I don’t want to have to deal with it on Monday, and I’m sure they don’t either.

I try not to give much homework at all, but especially not over weekend. We already have the kids all day, and they are KIDS. Is it really so bad that they get a break? We expect more from them than we do most adult full-time employees.

We have a no homework policy. We are not allowed to assign it at all.

I rarely do. My students might have an essay or a book report to work on

I’m a 4th year and I’ve never billed contemporaneously for even a one full week. I guess I’d just rather have one day of torture recording all my hours at the end of the month than that extra little torture daily. I’m wondering how common or rare this is in BigLaw. Thoughts?
