Read the text and answer the following questions.

Too much homework is stressful

According to recent research, some students are receiving too much homework and that is causing stress and negative health effect. Sometimes they feel as if they were pushed to handle a workload. Unfortunately, it can lead to significant stress for the students and their parents too. If we try to understand the best way to reduce that workload, maybe we can rely on the time that is necessary to finish the homework. For kids in primary school, 10 minutes a night of homework can be enough, while for high school students the time is higher, two hours per night. If the time is exceeded, students may experience stress at some point. In our school, there are many students who are stuggling with their homework, In addition to that, most of them have both working parents so these students end up not doing any homework because of the absence of supervision. It is very sad, but this is our lity. Homework was not created to stress anybody. We need to find a way to help these poor students.
