Homework and video game debates

Homework should be banned:
-it's too much of a work load for some students
-student athletes don't have enough time
-staying inside to do homework makes a person less social
-it causes too much stress for students
-seniors that are applying to college need to focus on their application more than their homework for classes
-there is not enough time to even relax on weekends
-we're already in school for so many hours and we take in so much information that our brains are fried by the time we get home and we don't need to do any more work than what we already do in school
-when students have hours of homework they don't get enough hours of sleep, sunlight, or exercise

Why homework should NOT be banned:
-it gives us an opportunity to practice problems
-it allows us to picture how the work load will be in the real world
-maybe shouldn't be banned but should be lessened
-practice makes perfect
-teaches responsibility and time management

Video games are too violent:

-there are lots of games that have guns and bombs in them and that teach kids at a young age thar that is okay
-they show deep detail
-they send a wrong message to children
-they make kids get a wrong conception of how war is
-violent video games were blamed for school shootings, bullying and violence towards women

Video games are NOT too violent:
-they aren't too violent if you are mature enough to know right from wrong
-they're just a game
-it is up to the parents to know wether or not their kid should be playing them and to monitor what they're doing
-most video games are not war games or gang games.. Some can be educational and have good meanings
