more and more student get heavy stress

hello ericunion, nice to meet you. it's the same here. In China today, the kids are not happy, no matter the elementary school students or the middle school students. it's crazy. every school day they have lots of homework to do. on weekends or during the holidays, it's almost the same, they don't have much free time to play. it's really bad for kids. i have gone through this, so i know how stressful it is.

I don't know if it is good or bad that the students get more knowledge and more stress in learning. On the bright side, students can experience the hard work and effort being put into school and they can anticipate the conditions of being a working individual. However, this said conditions also affects in the negative when it comes to enthusiasm and the interesting factor in learning. Schools and educators should find a common ground on how to combine hard work and still be interesting to attract more students to learning rather than dropping off their education and waste some good opportunity.

yer,i'm a senior three student from china,our winter holiday is only ten days,however most students have one month!!!!!it's not fair.

I think now a days our present try to impose all the dreams to our children. so the parents start to force the children about study from the very beginning of their life. I think due to more pressure from the very beginning children get afraid from study. That is way they fall in stress. I think it is not expected from the parents. We should more careful about the study of our child and we also keep it in our mind that child could not able to bear more pressure from the beginning of their life.

In America it is that way too. The work is so hard they get stressed out on figuring out how to do it and then they gets lots of homework that might last most of the night. Which can be very stressful. What's bad is it gets harder all the time. So much that sometimes the kids don't get a chance to know how to do the work before it is time to go to the next grade to do harder work because they go through the work so fast and then they are really lost. There sometimes is just too much work. Have a good day.

Yes! There is so much stress on students these days. They're learning things a lot faster than most people did at that age. But if they really want to learn and get an education I guess it's good. But if they need a break they can't really get one. And there's no time for sports, clubs, friends, family, or even good enough sleep at times.
