Education is important, reviewing previously learned stuff is important...but homework as a system does absolutely create a situation where kids are spending unbounded time outside of school on schoolwork. Practically, it's way the fuck too much. IMO school time, like work time, should be bounded.

    Well...I think the "home" part of homework is also a problem. IMO we should really do review work at school or in some non-home space, and non-recreation time.

    Like the 8 hour work day was supposed to be 8 hours work, 8 hours rest, and 8 hours recreation. School + homework + transit regularly exceeds the 8 hours. (And 8 hours work is way too much, we should be working wildly less with the incredible technologies that have been developed since the 8 hours work day concept was created.)
