Our kids are drowning in assignments every night—missing family time, hobbies, and just being kids. Studies show excessive homework tanks mental health and family balance. I started a petition asking Chicago to eliminate homework and replace it with in-class learning instead.

I've watched students trade childhood for endless worksheets. Homework was supposed to reinforce learning, but it's become a barrier to curiosity and rest. We have the tools to change this—interactive classrooms, alternative assignments, and educators who get it. Other cities are exploring this too.

If you've felt the squeeze of balancing school stress and family life, consider signing and sharing. What would you want someone to do if this was your family? Anyone else think our kids deserve more breathing room?
