Frankly, I never understood the anti-homework crowd. In university, I enjoyed homework - I am too stupid to do exercises quickly/during class, and homework lets me think about things for a lot longer. Doing homework has correlated very heavily for me with actually remembering things later on.

In high school and before homework took minimal amounts of my time. I am for assigning more homework to teenagers generally, since they do not do worthwhile things in their free time, as long as the homework is reasonably complex.

On the contrary, I've found teenagers are the people who do the most worthwhile stuff in their free time. They have enough spontaneity to enjoy themselves, and can be incredibly dedicated and creative when they find something that interests them. At the very least they're likely to hang out socially and make friends, whereas most post-college adults seem to just watch TV or scroll social media.

No one is stopping you doing homework, forced homework is a different matter.

Do you mean like socializing, hobbies, sports and just being a kid?

It's great that you enjoy homework, but why do you feel the need to inflict your preference on everyone else?

Having assigned homework means you cant do any of these things?

You must understand that teenagers have a limited amount of time outside of school.

I think you should be assigned some take-home tasks at your job, since you seem to be spending your time on frivolous things like writing HN comments.
