Homework has been a questionable topic when talking about if it should be allowed or not. I believe that homework should not be allowed for numerous reasons. A major reason why schools should not allow homework is because it causes lots of stress. Students go to school for about seven hours, and then come home to what can be over two hours of homework. So by the time they finish homework, the day is over and they do not get to go outside and enjoy the nice weather. Some may argue that you could just do homework after dinner, or when it is dark out. This does not work for me personally, because I play sports year round and many practices are after dinner, so I have to do it before. According to NEA Today, homework does not allow teens and kids to enjoy their day, and they become angry and stressed out. Also, if you do not do your homework, your parents might punish you, and it should not work that way. Our homework should just be the work that we don’t finish in school during the day. Having homework also drives us away from our family, and makes us antisocial. Studies say it is also not good to be sitting inside at a desk doing work all day, because you do not get any exercise. Giving homework does not help the students, because we just rush through it to get it done, and do not learn much. And staying up late finishing homework will make you angry and stressed out when you have to go back to school the next day. There are rarely any quiet places to do homework, and doing homework for too long can give you a sick feeling and is super boring. It is very hard to balance out time during the day because even I sometimes get homework in five different classes in one day. Forcing kids to do homework is like forcing a kid to eat a food that they hate, they will disapprovingly accept. Homework is a main reason why I dislike school. If homework was gone, I would not hate coming to school as much. Also, not doing just one homework assignment can tear apart your grade and it is not fair. Doing homework all day also takes away time that you could be spending with family, and we should just be able to relax when we get home. I strongly believe that homework should not be allowed, and kids and teenagers should be able to enjoy their homework free day after seven hours at school.
