@MrPitbull07 You expected them to freeze and wait for your child’s return? And that sample question is ridiculous. It makes the whole diatribe seem made up.
“This is why public school is a JOKE.
And honestly… I’m concerned for the next generation of kids.
A couple weeks ago, we pulled our kids out of school to take them on vacation.
They’re in 3rd grade, 2nd grade, and kindergarten.
We let the teachers know ahead of time.
Asked for assignments so they wouldn’t fall behind.
Their response?
“Don’t worry about it… we’ll catch them up when they get back.”
No big deal, right?
Except the day we leave… the school district starts hounding us.
Threatening to report us to the county if the kids miss any more days.
Our kids rarely miss school.
Are we seriously not allowed to take them anywhere??
Fast forward: we get back, and my son comes home with a mountain of worksheets.
No explanation.
No instruction.
Just, “Here. Figure it out.”
So he spends hours working through it over the next week.
And I’m looking at this stuff thinking… what the hell is this??
Keep in mind, I’m college-educated and run multiple successful businesses.
And I can’t even make sense of it.
Questions like:
“Sam has 155 clams. Richard gives him 137 peaches. If the cows moo while facing north, how many snow cones does he have?”
What are they even learning in there?
Then — a week later — his teacher messages us:
“He got almost all the answers wrong. He’s now failing English.”
So we reach out. Ask if he can redo the assignments.
Not just for a better grade… but so he can actually learn the material.
Her response?
“No. He can’t redo it.”
We try to work with her. Offer to compromise.
Her answer?
“Maybe you shouldn’t go on vacation.”
I’m done, dude.
Our kids are in ELEMENTARY school.
And this is already the circus we’re dealing with.
I don’t want to homeschool. I never thought I’d even consider it.
But the way this system is run?
It’s starting to look like the better option.
So here’s my honest question:
What are we supposed to do?
Because if this is the best public education can offer…
No wonder kids are falling behind.” ~Mike Wingard
BREAKING: Rep. Andy Ogles uses slur to refer to voters, calling voters he disagrees with "Libtards," unacceptable and offensive conduct from an elected official.
Voters should make this Ogles' last term in office.
👀 LeSean McCoy Inside Info on Eagles QB Jalen Hurts?
“I did a lot of digging… I know some people & the problem is, we can’t do different exotic looks, different formations, different motions because I’m hearing that he can’t really do it”

@Coach_Yac I know Cowherd is an idiot, but he’s saying what a lot of idiots in Philly are saying today. I’m not a Sirianni fan but they just won a SB, and it was 23-19 and the Eagles had the ball and a chance at a TD at the end. That’s coaching your team to a chance for a win.
Colin Cowherd on Kyle Shanahan and Nick Sirianni:
“The NFL playoffs is about the best coaches and the best quarterbacks. And Philly has neither… Kyle Shanahan is using coupons and buying a month full of groceries for 48 bucks. And Nick Sirianni hit the lottery and he’s broke 2 years later…. That was a coaching mismatch. One coach was ChatGPT and the other was crayons. That wasn’t even close.”
@WeAreBigGuys I knew it! We used to argue about 5&6 when it was a 4 team field now it’s 13&14. I don’t like blowouts either but we’re talking ND, BYU, Vanderbilt. They were not winning 4 in a row to win this tournament. Why does it matter?
@Sadie_NC Number 1 - because he didn’t get shot (Faked)
Number 2 - most Ds don’t want bans just common sense control
Number 3 - we have Ben calling for it everyday including that day.
@MLFootball Romo's play predictions were 🔥 but let's be real, if a broadcaster can consistently guess plays, shouldn't the coaches be fired? 😂 There's a line between genius announcing and poor coaching #RomoKnew#NFL
THROWBACK: When CBS announcer Tony Romo used to predict plays throughout the game.
This was the most incredible run we have ever seen by a broadcaster.
A damn shame Romo was forced to stop predicting every play.
@NFL_DovKleiman He’s a relatively undereducated man making a quarter of a million dollars a year at 24-25 yrs old. I’m not sympathetic. He’s only feeling the squeeze because he banked his entire future preparations on a career that typically lasts 2 to 4 years.
Awful: Giants rookie star RB Cam Skattebo revealed that he will only make $250,000 this year after taxes and agency fees.
Skattebo even started streaming to make extra money.
The NFL needs to start paying rookies fairly 🤦♂️
Some of the best coaches in high school football are hidden in the 1st or 2nd round of the HS playoffs because they refuse to recruit talent. They build programs within the community. And that's just the facts!
@atrupar Dumb comparison. Car insurance is mandatory and there isn’t much difference in companies if you get truly comparable coverage. Plus car ins. has a much larger pool of people who file few or no claims. Everyone uses healthcare in some way.
Scalise on the GOP healthcare plan: "Car insurance or your homeowners insurance -- you turn on the TV, there are commercials with lizards and all kinds of other animals that are selling you options to get lower insurance. You don't really have that in health insurance. So we want to open up the marketplace ... we're gonna give people options."
@MichelleMaxwell Thank god! You don’t like the results of the election but you’ll enjoy the results of dems taking office. Besides Va’s been blue for a while.
I am so heartbroken for my home state of VA💔 I honestly don’t think it will ever be the same after this. If everyone that had voted for President Trump had voted for Winsome, Reid&Miyares we would have won.We can’t blame this loss on the Dems.If you didn’t vote this in on you!
Playing high school football in Texas, then moving to another state, is like cruising in a big old Cadillac, smoking a $150 cigar, eating Wagyu ribeye… then getting tossed the keys to a Pinto that wheezes like it’s on a vegan cleanse.
@MAGACult2 While I support your message, this is inaccurate. All counties in West Virginia also voted for Donald Trump and every county in Hawaii and Rhode Island voted for Kamala Harris.
