One possible version

I don’t agree with the idea of sending kids to after-school classes because all these activities

can cause a lot of stress for children. It’s not good for a child’s development. In my opinion, kids should have time to relax and think for themselves, too. I think it’s better that parents shouldn’t compare their children with other children. It’s crazy and not fair.
