Families all over Ontario are figuring out how to support their school-age kids as they learn from home during COVID-19.

Kitchener'sCarin Lowerison and Matt White are among them.

Their three girls go to Sheppard Public School.Berekleyis in Grade 6, Heidrun is in Grade 4 and Clementine is in senior kindergarten.

This week, Carin and Matt are trying something a little different: Getting schoolwork done early and one at a time, so each one of their kids hastime to concentrate on their studies solo.

It started out smoothly, but when they tried to encourage one of the girls to be more independent, it didn't go over well.
