Children are the future of our planet. They are the people who are going to make
this
 world a better place for living. In order to achieve
this
, they should be properly nurtured and guided. Schools play an important part in their development. They learn in school and
also
 get
homework
 to be done at home. Some people believe that they should not be given
homework
, whereas others believe that it is necessary to get
homework
 for them, to be successful at school. Here I am going to discuss both the aspects of it. There are people who believe that children should not be given
homework
 every day. It is believed that children develop the characteristics from their fellow beings and from their behaviour. They definitely do learn from textbooks, but more than that, it is the fellow beings from whom they learn the most.
Also
, people believe that, if they are given
homework
 every day, they do not get enough time to play and sleep properly, which is vital for the child's development. As, we have the saying "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". There is a group of people who believe that
homework
 is necessary for them to be successful in life. Giving
homework
 every day, creates a sense of discipline among students. If
homework
 is given, children feel it to be their responsibility to complete it. So it helps in creating a sense of responsibility from childhood itself, which is necessary to be successful in life. According to me, I believe giving
homework
 to students does not create any harm, till it remains in limits. Too much of
homework
, can create a feeling of pressure among students. In conclusion,
homework
 should be given, but in the limits that they should be able to do it along with other activities of playing and sleeping, so that the overall development of the child takes place.
