LOL, I understand that point all too well. My parents tried so hard to remediate my failing math scores (I had to go to summer school for many years with little success, the highest I could ever get was a ‘D’, but most of the time...’F’)

They even tried to hire a sailor to tutor me, but I remember just putting my head down on the desk and refusing to even listen to the poor guy.

Sigh.

If there is one single thing I love about being an adult, it is that I am not a child completely incapable of understanding math. Math made my entire childhood horrible in that respect (it wasn’t “horrible” overall, though).

How many tens of thousands of Zero/HRC minions will be forced out of DC soon, with no future employment options? The diaspora will be to whatever corrupt city payroll budgets can afford them. Isn’t there about to be a 40% decrease in student load in all these schools?

I suppose the ejected Liberals will wait until May to move and take their spawn with them, and the incoming admin families will be taking those pupils’ slots.

There are so many cool ways now to learn math painlessly! I’m sorry for all you went through. I remember being taught over and over in middle school science. My mind couldn’t understand torque. And the tutoring professor after school was too touchy feely which did not help.
