  • Hyper parenting is also a contributing factor stress in children, today's kids have incredible high expectations placed on them, so when they do get to collage, they have severe anxiety issues.

    Also, what about homework in college? If kids don't do some homework in school, how are they supposed to cope with the work load that they will be getting when they enter collage? I used to have 5 assignments due every week when I was in collage, I think homework prepared me for it.

  • I remember when I was in school, I had atleast 2 hours of homework everynight, even in the lower elementary grades. I never felt I benefited from any of it. I remember a lot of the homework being things like worksheets and word search puzzles. Just mindless busy work just for the sake of assigning work.

  • I'm in the 8th grade and I will say that I am just done with homework. I get so much homework in my language class. I have to write so many essays. When am I going to write essays?! I am going to be a marine! Not some sort of writer. I don't need to learn how to write essays if im not going to need them. After I am done being a marine, I will work with microsft or sony. I am good with electronics. I have so much homework that im just too lazy to do it. I hope someone fixes this... SOON.

  • @xboxlivegtsubzeroaz you have not seen homework yet......

  • @jake8384 True. I haven't. I'm not in Highschool yet...

  • @xboxlivegtsubzeroaz Learning how to properly write an essay is one of the most important tools you will learn in school. Honestly, every job you go to will involve writing in some form (even as a marine you will have to work desk time). If you choose to go to university you will not survive without having proper writing skills.

  • I feel so bad for that ladiy's daughter. This is horrible she needs to be out more having fun with friends and family bot traped in a room filled with papers and books

  • The establishment is wrong. It has always been wrong. By definition.

    I remember thinking as a middle schooler in a bus waiting to go home, that I I would never let my children suffer what I did. I know others suffered much more than I, but still, it's not worth it. It's not just homework that ruined things. It's useless classes also, and useless grades even.

  • @AthosAmo I completely agree! The educational system is just regurjitating information in exactly the way the teacher wants and forgeting it after. Getting a good grade does not even show that you're smart, just able to repeat exactly what the teacher says.

  • sitting around for hours in late night study hall....terrible....private school bad idea talk about a joykill.

  • homework is not needed its unreasonable and stupid. all it does is make sure your child dosent have a life in or outside of school because of overloading on homework

  • no because its not just math its every other subject and there all telling us an hour a night, theres like 6 different classes and an hour a night?!?!?! thats just alott for just us kids, really?! where just kids and im with this guy! i mean i would love 5 mins a night per subject. there always telling us we need it in the future, but when we look at what most of our parents have for jobs we dont really need it in their fields, if we want a job focus where it is and really what should be learned

  • Homework is needed.

    Busywork is not.

    The purpose of homework is to test the child's understanding of the subject, not to fill their afternoons with work.

    A caveat comes with this though; if little Johnny isn't getting math on 5 problems a day, it's time to bump it up to 20.

  • In one way your write but dont you think this causes children strees sometimes kids can't do homework for a reason maybe because he or she's mother and father are arguing all the time etc. Homework just makes kids nervous and stress

  • Here's the secret. Make it a quick 10 min. assignment that is fairly easy. Students like the quickness and the ability to feel success.

    Then be sure that you grade it to give a high grade for reinforcement.

    That's it.
