Give students freedom -- Less or NO homework!
Many people think students' homework should be limited -- for many reasons... Without knowing it, teachers make students stressed over the homework. Stress is said to kill. Read below for full details and for more reasons.
On the news, people are constantly complaining about how kids are becoming overweight. This, in theory, is due to kids sitting around all day, right? Well, most students do end up sitting down all day - but it's because of homework! They go to school where they sit down all day, then get home and WANT to be active outside, but can't because of homework. So they sit down and do homework all afternoon until it's finally done - but when it's done, it's too late to go outside or do anything active - needless to say, they're too tired anyway! Students would probably be much less "overwieght" if they could have the time to join sports teams.
Homework also gives kids a lot of stress, and stress is said to be unhealthy. So many people think homework should not be given-out to kids - or at least not nearly this much - as they do schoolwork all day anyway!
