Homework as we called it assignment is a task for students that given by their teacher. Some teachers give homework in order to review or practice materials. Meanwhile, for some students, homework is unnecessary and wasting their time. Those opinions probably right, that homework has more disadvantages. Here are the following reasons:
First, homework only make students tired. They already study at school and they also need to study at home. Home should be a place for student to relax and spend their time with family. By making homework at home, it can make them tired after doing the outside activity, in this case school. Thus, homework can only make student tired and take their time with family.
Second, students have also their social life. A research from Stanford University found that too much homework can negatively affect kids, especially their lives away from school, family and friends. By making homework, they will not have time to play with their friends. They only stay at their room, making homework, and have less social life. If they only spend their time alone, they will have not any chance to do interaction with anyone at home so it can make them become an anti-social person.
The last is some studies shown that many children find doing homework very stressful, boring and tiring. A research from Stanford University also found that too much homework can make more stress. Based on a survey, 56 % of student consider that homework is a primary cause of stress. Based on that study, it obvious that doing homework has less benefit and does not even helpful at all.
