196 Words1 Page

I wrote this book because teachers sometimes neglect our right to rest and leisure when they give overflowing amounts of homework which is against article 24 of the universal declaration of human rights. Thank god for SS! My book provides acceptable reasons on why students shouldn’t be given homework. In fact, they are backed up by science and research which makes my work credible.

    In the essay “No books, please; we’re students” writer, John Leo compares students decades ago with students from 1995; their willingness to become engaged in academic experiences.
