Yes, there direct opinion was about how high school students should not be given homework. "Some teachers  take up to 45 minutes max to teach me something , and I see no point of giving me homework that takes me one hour to complete." By stating this she supports her main idea that she has stated.

Their story is about snapchat, and how it can be safe for some users. 

3. What is their direct opinion about that topic? Please quote it directly from the story or do a really good job of paraphrasing.
Yes her direct opinion was about this topic, "The final thing about snapchat is that it’s an app that can be used for some very inappropriate stuff.
