my kid likes to postpone her homework infinitely ( just like me when I was in school… I think it’s my genes working … sh*t ) .

How to handle this scenario.

Thanks,

Slice the homework into small chunks and allow her to alternate: bit of homework - play for a short period of time (15 mins? 5 mins?) - bit of homework - play for a short period of time

It seems like this proposal will make the completion of homework take more time than sitting down and doing it one go, but if you add in the procrastination and struggle of sitting down and doing it in one go, this is actually shorter in time frame.
