They take the help of <a href="http://tutorteddy.com" rel="nofollow">online tutorial</a> to solve their homework; instead of their parents. Did we ever dare to do such things? Be cool, my friend!

Today's kids are smarter, more advanced from ages 1 and 2 years old. The knowledge and sentence structure some of the babies I know have is more advanced than kids from 10 years ago. Parents are working with their kids more at an early age as well. The education has to change with time. I am a product of orleans parish School system and I was an Honor Roll student from Pre-K to 12 Grade. I don't feed into the system failed me becasue a concerned parent would make homework and study material for kids and not just put the responsibility on a school. A major factor in me being a smart student was my parents. Parents have to be involved no matter what city, state, or school a child is in. Parents don't feel bad because as kids our parents had to deal with homework they weren't familiar with also. As years fly by Education, people, and others are SUPPOSE to be more advanced than previous years and people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-29753260327599751072009-11-24T09:02:21.472-06:002009-11-24T09:02:21.472-06:00That's a great idea.
What about "study ...That's a great idea. <br /><br />What about "study groups" where the older kids help the younger ones.<br /><br />I was lucky, my Dad was an engineer so I never got to his math level. But I can see where many kids could easily outstrip their parents preparation, especially given the history of the Orleans Parish School Board.mominemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517025007146886987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8075448.post-1351763955710127332009-11-24T01:03:00.621-06:002009-11-24T01:03:00.621-06:00This sounds like a classic episode of That's F...This sounds like a classic episode of That's F*cked Up...my old rants about the New Orleans public school systems! It's nice to know that the school systems are stepping their game up with this next generation.
