A ‘Frustrated’ Parents Brilliant Response To Her Child’s Mind-Boggling Common Core Homework

In 1935 a speech was given wherein it was said that “He alone, who owns the youth, gains the Future!”. What is the best way to control the youth of today? You must start with creating a divide between parent and child. Best way to accomplish this is to decrease the amount of time the child has to spend with the family and create a system where the child no longer relies on their parent for their education. Common Core has done an excellent job at creating this divide by taking simplicity out of learning thus increasing the hours needed to complete previously simple homework problems. Additionally, by changing the systems, processes and definitions needed to complete something like math, you will have more parents scratching their heads saying “go ask your teacher”. This loss of confidence between parent and child as a result of Common Core ‘education’ is frustrating parent and child alike and recently this parent stood up with a brilliant message to the teacher[1].

One parent who attempted to help his child with this Common Core math problem ended up just as frustrated as his child – and he used his education and professional experience to let the teacher know exactly how he felt about this approach.

Dear Jack,

Don’t feel bad. I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electronics Engineering which included extensive study in differential equations and other higher math applications. Even I cannot explain the Common Core mathematics approach, nor get the answer correct. In the real world, simplification is valued over complication. Therefore,

427

-316

111

The answer is solved in under five seconds – 111. The process used is ridiculous and would result in termination if used.

Sincerely,

Frustrated Parent

How does a parent STOP Common Core? The train seems to have already left the station but a parent can stop the effects of Common Core by becoming involved and question all the work given to their child. It seems unfair to have to spend hours understanding what garbage a CCC system has stuffed in your child’s head. Understand that Common Core is only built to create a large force of worker bees among the middle class. Your children are currently gaining a hate for learning in their younger years while the elites are breeding the leaders of tomorrow as their kids receive the benefits of a Common Core free private education. Your choices? a) Supplement what your child learns at school by teaching them the simple ways to do math at home and forcing them to read things of substance in their free time, b) homeschool them and control the quality of their education or c) pay a private school to educate your kids making sure the teachers weren’t educated at the Universities in the past decade with a heavily Common Core influenced education.
