worn out

Sometimes I just get worn out by how much help my children need with their homework. The funny thing is that it's not my older children who need help so much as my elementary school children.

I seem to spend hours reading with them, giving them practice spelling tests, timing their multiplication tables, correcting mountain math and mountain language, giving practice vocabulary tests, tutoring in math, etc.

My mom always says she never had to help any of us with our homework. Is school harder now or were we just "smarter than the average bear"?

  1. I think school is harder! Or the fact that teachers love to give homework now, so I hear. Soon to find out.
