What the petition asks

Homework doesn’t let children and teenagers spend much time with family. Revision is understandable but homework can cause lots of stress and anxiety. It needs to stop
I know this because homework doesn’t let me, as a teenager at secondary school, spend time with my family because I am to busy focusing on my homework. And it use to give me a lot of anxiety and now it’s mostly stress!
