\nI’m so fed up right now. My daughter used to love school, but as the homework started piling up, she became constantly tired and overwhelmed. I don’t even recognize my energetic, joyful princess anymore.\n
And it’s not just hard on her\u2014it’s exhausting for me too. I work all day, and when I finally get home, instead of spending quality time with my daughter or just taking a moment to relax, I’m stuck trying to help her with homework that I don’t even understand myself (physics, seriously?).\n
Are you sure you’re teaching the right way if kids have to study for another half of the day just to meet your criteria? Our kids deserve to be kids, not stressed-out little adults buried under piles of homework.\n

\u201cI feel like teachers forget the fact that students have other classes that assign homework as well and that we have other things to do, such as sports, after-school activities, and spending time with family and friends.\n
I really wish that the teachers at my school coordinated more on when assignments are due because there are times that I might have as many as three big projects due on the same day!\n
Now, I\u2019m not saying that schools shouldn\u2019t assign homework at all\u2014a little bit of work is very helpful to reinforce what was taught in class that day.\n
But on the days that several teachers give a ton of homework, I always end up going to sleep very late and I am exhausted the next day, which makes me too sleepy to focus in class, which makes it hard to pay attention, which makes it impossible to understand the lesson\u2026 then I have to stay up late AGAIN, because I don\u2019t get what I\u2019m supposed to do on the homework. It\u2019s a vicious cycle.\n
So, yes, schools give too much homework that is usually unnecessary and just a waste of time.\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
