Mom declares her daughter is done with homework in viral email.
Blogger Bunmi Laditan sent her 10-year-old’s school a clear message.
“Hello Maya’s teachers,
Maya will be drastically reducing the amount of homework she does this year. She’s been very stressed and is starting to have physical symptoms such as chest pain and waking up at 4 a.m. worrying about her school workload. 
She’s not behind academically and very much enjoys school. We consulted with a tutor and a therapist suggested we lighten her workload. Doing 2-3 hours of homework after getting home at 4:30 is leaving little time for her to just be a child and enjoy family time and we’d like to avoid her sinking into a depression over this.”


A++++ parenting 💜

I’ve talked with a whole cadre of child therapists and psychiatrists about this very issue. There is little conclusive evidence that homework significantly improves elementary school children’s grades, understanding of subjects, or facility with various operations, processes, etc. However, plenty of evidence suggests that ever-increasing amounts of homework for young children lead to stress, anxiety, emotional fatigue, resistance toward academics in general, lack of leisure time to build social/interpersonal skills, and poorer family relations.  (My kids were doing about 3 hours a week IN KINDERGARTEN, at age 5 – so that’s ½ hour every night, after a 6.5 hour school day, or else saving it up for long slogs over the weekend, even more disruptive. And that wasn’t including reading practice!) 


We have stopped doing homework altogether with my 7 year old as a result of severe anxiety/depression and a learning disability. She had gotten to a place where she had so little self confidence and truly believed that she was stupid and worthless, not just because of homework of course – but every time we tried to sit down to do homework with her, it’d end in tears with her really vehemently berating herself, and no amount of encouragement could ameliorate the damage done. Now, granted, she’s got other things going on besides just an overload of school work. But in NO WAY did the homework help her, either academically or emotionally. 
No little kid should have to spend an hour or more each night getting through homework. Now, my deal with Siena is that if she wants to give her homework a shot, I will absolutely help her if she wishes for help, but I no longer force her to complete all of it or to work on it for some set length of time before finally throwing in the towel. 
Guess what? With the pressure taken off, she’s actually doing MORE independent work now, purely out of the desire to learn and practice, than she ever was before we’d decided with her therapy team and school that homework was just not a thing this kid could handle.
Luckily for my older daughter my school’s 3rd-grade team decided to hand out homework only 3x/week, and the sheets take no more than 15-20 minutes to complete. That is totally reasonable for 8-9 year olds! 
Anyway tl;dr just because the school system may require it sure as shit doesn’t mean parents can’t, or shouldn’t, fight it. Do what’s right for your kid, and above all, let them be kids. 

I eventually stopped doing homework because I was overwhelmed by it.

There was an article just the other day in the local paper about a primary school that’s abolishing homework! You can read it here (autoplay video, gives you a few seconds to stop it).


Homework is intrusive in a young child’s life. It makes sense for adults who will likely have to bring work home with them so in college it’s good training. But for young kids. No.

Seriously I’m 100% on board with this. There are high school students expected to do three or four hours and beyond worth of homework every day. It’s fucking ridiculous. And I work in elementary school where we literally have little kids develop anxiety disorder and have panic attacks over homework and testing. This shit is not normal.: Maya's Homework

 Hello Maya's teachers,
 Maya will be drastically reducing the amount of homework she does this year. She's been very stressed and is starting to have

 She's not behind academically and very much enjoys school. We've consulted with a tutor and a therapist suggested we lighten
 her workload. Doing 2-3 hours of homework after getting home at 4:30 is leaving little time for her to just be a child and enjoy
 family time and we'd like to avoid her sinking into a depression over this.
 Thank you for understanding.

 This kid was the trouble maker voted most likely to end up in prison. He tried to fight teachers, bullied people at
 random, and generally both gave, and got, a hard time.
 It was my school's first ever computing class, brand new computer lab and all. How this kid, who I'm almost certain
 was failing, got into the class I don't know
 He sat next to me. I didn't care - school bullies were low on my list of things to care about. He was quiet. He took
 notes. He tried. And I watched him get more and more frustrated, because the teacher never responded when he
 tried to ask questions, never tried to elaborate for him once everyone else understood.
 A few weeks in, I saw him trying to read my notes during programming practice. I looked at his screen, and saw what
 he'd done wrong. I slid my notes across, silently tapped the part he needed, and went back to my work.
 It took me a long time to realise that he was quite smart, but had some kind of learning disability. And for that entire
 year, if he had questions, he asked me. I have the ability to explain a single concept six different ways, and would
 quietly do so until he got it.
 We never spoke a word to each other outside of that classroom, and I've no idea where he is now, but the teacher
 announced on our final day that the whole class had passed.

        Jurors Recommend The Death Penalty For Man Who Tortured and Murdered His Girlfriend’s 8-Year-Old Son - blogged by @MsJennyb ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Last month, 37-year-old Isauro Aguirre was convicted of first-degree murder, four years after his girlfriend’s 8-year-old son died from repeated abuse. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Gabriel Fernandez was found inside his Palmdale home on May 22, 2013, with a cracked skull, broken ribs, burned skin, missing teeth and BB gun pellets in his groin area, LA Times reports. During Aguirre’s trial, prosecutors detailed the abuse Fernandez suffered at the hands of his mother and her boyfriend, Aguirre. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Fernandez was forced to eat cat feces and his own throw-up. The couple also made the young boy sleep in a cabinet with his hands and ankles bound. Prosecutors also revealed Fernandez was punched in the face so hard that it tore the skin from his chin and nose. Two days after officials found Fernandez in the home, the little boy died from his injuries. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ On Wednesday, Aguirre’s penalty for his conviction was read before the court. Although the defense asked for a less severe sentence, as Aguirre suffers from a learning disability, the jurors voted on the death penalty for the brutal murder and torture of Gabriel Fernandez. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ According to the LATimes, Fernandez’s case also led to criminal charges against L.A. County social workers, since they left Fernandez at the home after six investigations into abuse involving his mother, who is also charged with murder.: Jurors Recommend The Death
