" Why is homework legal? I mean it's literally putting hours of work upon already unstable teenagers after they were forced to sit and deal with the same stuff for 6-8 hours and it deprives us of sleep and we don't even get paid. So it's basically slavery and Slavery is illegal" - Tumblr user: that-stupid-tardis-sound Students sit in school all day and barely get any exercise. When they get home, they have to sit some more and do their homework. By the time they are done, it is time to get ready for bed. Where is the time for activity? Where is the time for exercise? The fact is that there is no time. During the school week and sometimes on the weekends, the student is busy doing work and school and homework at home. They don’t have time to play sports and if they do then they are rushing through their homework anyways.
