I mean as if they aren't dumbed down enough by public school -- they have YA do all their homework?

I don't mind helping out. I mean honestly, haven't you gotten a friend to help you with your homework when you were in school? Some people just aren't great at some subjects. So they'll never be a historian. They could be a mathematical prodigy. How do you know?

what scares me is people who answer the questions wrong, but are absolutly sure that they know.

I think it is a great sign that they are learning to think out of the box and not just rely upon simplistic answers and the rote system of learning the new TEST mentality our eductional establishment is being forced to implement.
I admit and always try to imply that I am not the smartest thing or shiniest marble on floor but to look into and question all answers.
Homework is just that, work at home, with the textbook and reference materials at hand, and this PC I stare at, to much lately, is such a reference.
When a question is framed in an adult manner and not some joker playing games if I have fact it is stated as such and an opinion as an opinion.
As a child living in mostly remote places I had to read and gleam as much as I could from books and any book is still a treasure to me but todays questions have so many differing viewpoints and each opens the mind to another viewpoint and to question each to find your own best answer and that is the very beginning of wisdom.
Wisdom means asking the questions you need to find solutions for and then applying the best parts, Truth, to your life.
Wisdom is in the search.
Too busy to help youths?
Let them find out that adults are with them and want them to succeed.
Each of us as we grow older should find more complexitys to life and they are searching as are we the elderly for that solutions to them.

I really don't mind homework questions if the answers lead kids in the right direction and don't specifically answer the question. That, I don't like.

But it seems kids today have much less interest in what's going on around them. Current events and history are boring and they couldn't care less so at least sending them down the right road with a road map is ok.

teenagers desire help as properly as adults. Ya no person cares appropriate to the stupid stuff like if he likes me etc however the different stuff others grants some somewhat sturdy insite on a difficulty. It enables to have somebody you dont be attentive to to furnish suggestion on a difficulty you're having whilst they arent in the placement. Others can see the hollow image once you cant. And as properly once you answer a stupid question you may get 2 unfastened pts lol thats y i answer a number of them.

I never learned anything useful from doing homework. I just struggled to get it done in the shortest time possible, so what's so wrong about helping some youngsters with their dreaded HW?

Now, chill, and shed your envy.....let's face it, we wish we had had access to YA when we were in school.

Don't like the comment about public school, but agree with the rest. I don't know how they expect to learn anything, just asking for the answers.

I like when they are directed to websites for their answers. Teaches them research skills.
