Homework is... not the greatest thing in the world.
You'd have a hard time finding a child who's in favour of it.
They tend to spend most of their time giving out about the fact that they can't just go outside and play or watch Netflix when they get home from school.
Similarly, many parents aren't exactly in favour of homework either.
A lot of the time, it requires us to give up our own free time to help our children learn things that they arguably should be taught during the school day.
Though, at the same time, it sharpens children's minds and ensures that they are able to recreate the work they do in school in a different setting.
It's complicated.
One child who doesn't really think it's that complicated at all is Lisa Vale's seven-year-old son.
After being given a load of homework for the Christmas break, he decided to use this work to tell his teacher that he had no interest in doing this work and that he simply did not agree with it at all.
Lisa took to Twitter to share what her son had done.

In case you can't read the above, it says:
"I'm so over homework.
"No one likes homework.
"Little kids hate homework.
I cannot stand homework."
You get the idea...
Lisa's son then went on to write "save trees, less homework" which is, you know, fair enough.
It remains to be seen as to whether the seven-year-old will receive less homework in the future.
We can probably assume that he will not.
