Help settle a family squabble - After school chore priority.

[kid a]

Its just a matter of numerical placement, but I contend that "walk the dog" is equal to or greater than "homework" as the top two priorities.

Too much homework and poochie has to wait three more hours to stretch and do business and may miss the opportunity if I am out of town.

1. Walk the dog
2. Do your homework

(our dog is in a side-of-the-house chain link runner kennel from 8:30 to 2:50 when the kids come home)

1. What a beautiful dog!

I say walking the dog is more important. That cute poochie waits all day to get out and run around; the homework can wait for that.

2. What a beautiful baby!!!

I'd say walking that baby. School work can wait for 45 minutes to let that cuties streach it's legs and smell the world.

3. I think the dog's needs should come first

Though the walker should not dawdle, so that homework can be done.

4. I agree, walk the dog and then tackle the homework.

The dog gets to stretch and whatnot, they get to hang out together, and the kids get a mental break from schoolwork.
