Homework is a waste of time
How many times have you heard a student give you an excuse to why their homework isn't done? A teacher wouldn't have to hear those excuses if the students didn't have the responsibility of doing their homework. Students could be happier and work better in class if they had no homework.

You've probably wondered how many of your students do after school activities. What you probably haven't wondered is how long they really have to do their homework. They have enough time to do their homework
after the activity but after the activity they would often be tired. You can't just tell their parents not to let them do the activity because they could almost be professional at the sport or activity. I don't know about you but I couldn't live with myself knowing that I possibly took away a profession from someone. But you could help their side and not give homework so that they don't have to harshly deal with both of those responsibilities.

Teacher's everywhere often wonder why kids come up with their excuses. The students often invent their excuses because of the fear they have of their punishment or the teacher knowing they don't have their work
done. Each time they give an excuse, no matter if it's true or not, their G.P.A (Grade Point Average) goes down in whatever subject. They don't even realize until they get their report cards. I don't think
that students should have to take on that responsibility. If anything no homework could just give the teachers a chance to give the students more work in class.

Have you ever seen one of your students come to class looking angry and confused? It's usually because they didn't understand their homework and didn't get it finished. Giving homework to primary kids
can damage their relations with their parents. And if you think about it that way then you could be taking away some relations away from the child and the parent. The stress of homework can be so bad that a
student would cry when they don't understand a question. The stress will just keep tempting the student until they make an excuse.

Homework can take away time from family, news, and other media aside from the fact that it's boring. Obviously homework is also a cause of stress. Of course the worst part of homework is that you have to do  it from grade one through university. The only thing homework should befor is for your dog to eat.
