In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

Get into the habit of starting your homework as soon as you get home. You’ll not only earn the respect of your parents, but will have your nights free to do other things.  If you have questions about an assignment, ask for help. Your parents will be happy that you’re showing initiative. Understand homework policies. It’s important to discuss with your parents any questions you have pertaining to their homework policy. Be able to answer questions about location, time, if friends can come over, etc. Here are some questions to get you started:  Time: What time should homework be started and how late is too late to begin working on it? Are breaks allowed? Place: Where can homework be done and is the TV or music allowed to be on while doing homework? People: Can friends come over to do homework? So many of today’s issues stem from technology. Whether it’s being used too much or it’s used inappropriately (which includes using it at inappropriate times, such as during school); technology can be the source of many problems and disappointments.  Turn off your phone at school. Though it's already a rule at most schools, make sure your phone is off during the day. When it comes to social media; there are some significant obstacles for both parents and teenagers. While social media can be beneficial, it has also proven to have some horrible costs.  Part of doing well in school is learning to get along with your peers. Using social media in a way, which negatively impacts another person at school is something you want to avoid. It should go without saying that showing up to school is the first step in doing well at school.  Many schools already have strict policies in place to prevent students from skipping school, so make sure you're following the rules. Whether it's showing up on time or not leaving early, it's important to be present at school.

Summary:
Prioritize homework. Don't let technology be a distraction. Show up to school.
