'The curriculum is insane for elementary school kiddos. They have absolutely lost their childhood,' says a longtime kindergarten teacher.

Ms. Kelli , of the TikTok account @the_wondermint, reflects on how different it is for students at even an introductory level.

Instead of placing more pressure, Kelli suggests a gentler, simpler approach.

“If we can’t cover that in that time, we’re definitely not gonna get the best out of them at 5, 6 o’clock at night ,” she said.

She does, however, advocate trying to instill a love of reading” if you can count that as homework.
