When schools ease up on the homework, the backpacks will become reasonable again. I really think kids are getting too much. How many hours do the schools honestly think students have to devote to homework? And I was always told that you shouldn’t study for over-long periods of time, or you’ll end up forgetting more. Seems like it’s all about pushing college level work on them as early as possible, so they can get into some school that they’ll be in debt to for the rest of their lives.
