What parents can do when AI becomes a homework crutch By Kyle James of ConsumerAffairs August 19, 2026 The best AI tutor shouldn't simply hand over answers. Look for tools that break problems into steps, ask questions, and make your child do the thinking.Set one simple rule: Try it yourself first. If your child reaches for AI before attempting the problem, it may be becoming a homework crutch.Test whether they're actually learning. Take the AI away and ask your child to explain or solve a similar problem on their own.As students increasingly use artificial intelligence for homework help, parents face a new problem of figuring out whether AI is actually teaching your child or simply doing their homework for them.ConsumerAffairs interviewed Ashish Bansal, a tech executive and father who created AI-powered math tutor StarSpark.AI, who says parents should pay less attention to whether AI gets the right answer and more attention to how it gets their child there.Watch what happens when your child asks for the answer, Bansal told ConsumerAffairs. A real teacher doesn't just hand it over. It asks a question back, breaks the problem into steps, and makes the child do the thinking.So before turning AI into your family's new math tutor, here are some ways to make sure your child is actually learning.1. Give your child the closed-laptop testThere's an incredibly simple way to determine whether AI taught your child something.Take the AI away. After your child gets help solving a problem, close the laptop or put down the phone and ask them to explain how they got the answer.If they can, it's teaching, Bansal said. If they can't, it's copying.You can take the experiment one step further by giving them a similar problem and see if they can solve it without AI.This helps expose one of the biggest potential problems with AI homework assistance: It can make tonight's homework look successful without preparing your child for tomorrow's test.Parents should also look at progress over several weeks. Are they getting faster? Are they asking for less help? Can they solve problems that previously gave them trouble?Or are they returning to AI every time they encounter the same type of equation?Pro tip: Once or twice a week, pick one problem similar to something your child completed with AI assistance and have them solve it without AI. Consider it a two-minute reality check.2. Establish one simple rule: Try it… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - What is postpartum psychosis and why is it central in the Lindsay Clancy trial?
