Geometry is the Kryptonite to my super hero powers and, just between you and me; I don't think The Teenager will even use the knowledge gained from learning the cross sections of a cube for any purpose in her adult life. Except for the inevitable day that her teenager begs for help with his/her geometry homework, I mean, obviously.
It's insane. (Unless of course, the cross sections of a cube are important to your daily adult life in which case; I am sorry if I have offended you. Also, I hope you get paid really well.)
Next up: tearing my hair out over pre-algebraic formulas and a deepened relationship with Google Earth and it's wonderful maps of obscure Middle Eastern nations.
As you might imagine, I am simply giddy with excitement.
I already find myself being annoyed at homework even at my boys early level for the same reason. When will they ever need this?!?!
