Greetings, discouraged youth who come here to vent about homework!

Homework may indeed suck but working at McDonald’s for the rest of your life because you didn’t get decent marks in school is about eleventy billion times worse.

Hopefully you can take some solace in the knowledge that you are not the first and you are not alone. Meanwhile, comments on this post are now closed.

Have a nice day!

Haha, I’m reading this as I procrastinate from hwork ;)
Seriously though, we finish a french book on Friday and then have an oral presentation + report due on it… on MONDAY? Ha, screw that, I’m just going to work on the *other* 7 things we have due this week.

Seriously, if they expect us to finish everything on time, we’d be up way too late (some people have to get up at 6 AM anyway just to make it to the bus. And at the same time, they’re pushing kids to get 8-9 hours of sleep, which is fricking impossible even WITHOUT all the extra homework). I actually have to skip Monday so I have extra time for hwork… ridiculous

Well, my break is over in 2 mins, so I should post this and go. Ughhhhh… gr 8 sucks sometimes

I agree. Homework is just an excuse for teachers to spend less time actually teaching to the class. Very often my younger sister [8] will bring home work that was not taught in school. Now it becomes our job to teach her division and multiplication; subjects that should be taught IN school.

Homework is such a drag, honestly. Not only is it incredibly boring and takes away from the time could be used to do more important things, but it makes kids hate school and creates a lot of tension at home. Why not let children spend their free time playing outside and having fun instead? They’ll learn more from that than they would from sitting at the kitchen table punching numbers into a calculator or writing book reports, I’m sure.

I’m in high school and the amount of work they expect you to do is unbelievable. If I wanted to finish every single piece of homework I get assigned, I’d be up until 2 AM every night. And I have to be up at 6:30 to get to school in the first place. All that so I can learn nothing but how to bore myself out of my skull.

Homework really does blow. I always do my homework, but that’s because it affects my grades in the end if I don’t. But I’m regularly up until 12 AM trying to finish the shit we’re assigned, then I have to get up at 7:30AM and drag my ass off back to do more of the shit. It’s utter bollocks. Seriously, SCRAP HOMEWORK.

home work is the lamest thing on this earth. i mean think about it school work is for SCHOOL, not for the home. i took a survey and more than half the students dont do their homwork, and if more is assigned then that will make us do it………..not, what are people thinking we are not doing it, wont do it, and im pretty sure it doesnt matter that much, im still alive and am probable going to succeed in life……….

Home work sucks…i don’t think that I should have to do homework, the teachers should give kids enough time to finish the work during school. If they don’t then the teachers should just forget about it our try and finish it the next day. We already spend enough time in school and we don’t want to take home school work with us. I think that home work just makes me dislike school even more, or maybe even make me dislike it in the first place.

We don’t assign homework at our school unless it is necessary for the understanding of whatever the subject is. If we can’t get it done in the classroom then we have failed.
