<div><p>Without question, school work loads are getting heavier and heavier.

Is time spent just being a child relaxing at home not important?

They're incredible and I know they have to do things a certain way. This system just isn't working for my family or my child. I can't watch her unravel anymore and be filled with so much stress at age 10. Her dad (who is a very good behavioral therapist) and I have worked hard to reduce her stress, but there's just too much work. I don't talk about my kids much because I try to respect their privacy but I felt like I needed to get this out there. Something has to change."</p><p>Laditan sent an email to Maya's school teacher explaining she will no longer be completing homework assignments. </p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_650px.jpg 650w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_750px.jpg 750w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_850px.jpg 850w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_950px.jpg 950w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1050px.jpg 1050w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1150px.jpg 1150w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1250px.jpg 1250w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1350px.jpg 1350w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1450px.jpg 1450w, https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/05/18156265_1896140190632968_7608686066721402416_o_GH_content_1550px.jpg 1550w" sizes="89vw" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>Facebook</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p><!-- [invalid-shortcode] --></p><p>Laditan was met with an outcry of support, people seemed to be really on her side. </p><amp-iframe sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin" layout="responsive" frameborder="0" height="9" width="16" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/comment_embed.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FBunmiKLaditan%2Fphotos%2Fa.1397535887160070.1073741827.1375076236072702%2F1896140190632968%2F%3Ftype%3D3%26comment_id%3D1896151197298534&include_parent=false"></amp-iframe><amp-iframe sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin" layout="responsive" frameborder="0" height="9" width="16" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/comment_embed.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FBunmiKLaditan%2Fphotos%2Fa.1397535887160070.1073741827.1375076236072702%2F1896140190632968%2F%3Ftype%3D3%26comment_id%3D1896151197298534%26reply_comment_id%3D1499059206782982&include_parent=false"></amp-iframe><amp-iframe sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin" layout="responsive" frameborder="0" height="9" width="16" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/comment_embed.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FBunmiKLaditan%2Fphotos%2Fa.1397535887160070.1073741827.1375076236072702%2F1896140190632968%2F%3Ftype%3D3%26comment_id%3D1896148730632114&include_parent=false"></amp-iframe><p>Laditan says she'll post an update from the school soon, and hopefully they're as supportive as everyone else!</p><p>Do you think this mama was right to stand up for her daughter?
