I don't get homework. I mean, I understand why we have it, but why do they give us so much? And the harder the class is, the more load you get! Why can't we get practice without having four hours of homework every night? It's as if the school is saying that the only way we can succeed is by making school our life. What do you think?

I'm no teacher, and I'm sure they have their reasons, but I have to say (don't tell anyone!) that I agree with you! But take heart—I made it through the umpteen hours of homework and studying it took to get through high school and college (it gets worse before it gets better!), and I know you will too. Hang in there and do your best, because that's what God calls us to do.

Love,
Jessie
