Homework should be banned

HERE'S WHAT I THINK

I think that homework should be banned from our schools. There are so many stress- related problems today. Let kids be kids. There are many years left for them to develop ulcers and high blood pressure. What's the rush?

Should homework be banned from our school programs?

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes! Let kids be kids- no stress.

No WORK! says:

FIrst of all homework should only be in one class. MATH! Math actually requires a little of practice. Yes Homework should also be limited and it should be the kids decision to decide how much they feel homework is needed.

I don't get the reason for homework. Kids do their work in class, they learn in class. Leave them alone!!! They need their own little time to have fun. Teachers are just taking away time from their families.

I think it should be banned because it only creates more stress at the home and when you are at school is the only time you should have to do work. school is for school work and home is for doing things at home like having a little bit of free time!

If unfinished classwork counts as homework, then it would help
to build a sense of responsibility, provided that teachers give
a sufficent amount of class time for the students to finish it.
It's really building up stress for us kids.

No way! You should've done your homework!

Tonique says:

Homework should not be banned. If you dont finish your work in class you go home and you finish it. Simple as that. They'll be more stressed out if they DONT do their homework and then at the end of the year they are freaking out about an exam that they know nothing about.

Homework shouldn't be banned. I'm a college student now and I went through it too. Homework is stupid. We all know it. Still, some homework has value. I think that teachers need to realize when they're assigning too much. Some students need more practice, others don't. The students should decide, not the teachers. Teachers should assigns small amounts of homework and make additional problems optional. If kids choose not to do extra work and suffer as a result, that's their problem

Brad says:

Homework should be limited, but not banned. Too much homework makes everything stressful for me. But I've also realized that if we had no homework at all, we would have to do even more work at school and at school, you only have a short amount of time to complete your work in class. So a neutral amount of homework would balance life out a little bit better than too much homework,
