<p>The last time I helped one of my kids with homework was in grade school. It was dividing fractions and when I told my daughter to just flip the second fraction and muliply, she flew into a rage and told me they were not "allowed" to do that and she showed me the lesson and it was lots of pages of bundles of asparagus and clouds and pieces of cheese . It was way too confusing for me so I showed it to my husband who has a masters degree in engineering from Stanford and he flew into a rage and my daughter ended up crying and we all decided that Terc Math was best left up to professionals.</p>
