You must've been in some fat-crayon-using retard classes.
No way my parents could teach me calculus or AP chem
ETA: no way I could teach my kids those subjects now either, this far removed from the courses

Talk to your kid. There are kids who dont do the work that is required to do in class, and decide to take it home instead. You need to talk to your kid. Stop blaming others before you look to your own.

I studied my first year in college before deciding it (studying, not college) wasn't for me.

quote:this was my household
I couldn't play with neighbors outside until my homework was done. So that meant doing what I could on the bus, getting home and doing the rest while having a snack so I could still have time to play before it got dark.

I can guarantee that I never met any of those. To be fair in high school I never did any homework. Who actually gets that much homework in college? I was a business major and a majority of classes were go to class, take notes, study for tests, and do one relatively time consuming project. Definitely not 1 hour per class though.

Suckers....I never cracked a book in grade school.
Those study habits however did not translate well to college.

If your kid is in Calculus, then your role as a parent should be close to an end if you've done your job correctly. They should be a bit more self sufficient at that age.

Personal responsibility would be letting the kids decide how much work needs to be done to master the material
Yeah, because most kids are great judges on how much homework they need to do. How many kids would vote to do homework ever if it were left up to them? You don't build a curriculum around what the kid wants, but what they need, and kids even in high school don't have a clue about that.

I'm just quoting what I was told when studying with a tutor. I never did half of that.
I would do a few minutes a class. I bet Asian kids study more than those times though, them kids study.

Yea that is ridiculous, if I had spent a quarter or shite an eighth of that time doing school work I would have been a 4.0 student from a kindergartner through college with no problem.

My kid has 8 classes (rotating schedule) ... 30x8=240/60=4 hours. Yeah for one of them being PE.
Posted on 11/3/15 at 9:31 pm to tiger91
But does he have 8 different classes every day?
Posted on 11/3/15 at 9:35 pm to CorkSoaker
7 everyday. Still a long time of normal expectations at 30 min per class. Especially when you take into account jobs and clubs that name a well rounded student.
