Well apparently President Obama feels our children should be in school more. He would love to see longer school days, shorter summer vacations and get this also open on weekends. Umm excuse me but when do kids get to be kids??? Yes there are other Countries that are ahead of us as far as students grades but guess what we already go to school longer then they do (Asia). Oh President Obama is not the only one behind this also education secretary, Arne Duncan is too.
As a parent I can tell you my kids are in school alot and they come home with a few hours of homework every night. Extending hours is not going to help it will only cut out on any free time that they possibly have and its not much.

So do you think our kids need longer hours and more school?
