Senya's classmate's mom called, asking how we solved the problem about the function's multiple values, if we specifically noted the extremum points... And I have no idea what she's talking about. Senya isn't home, so I have no one to ask. I opened his notebook, but I still don't get it. I took a picture and sent it to her. She said we didn't note them and asked, "Are you sure that's correct? You can't find the derivative without them! Look, if the function crosses the X-axis at coordinates less than the minimum point, can you even write the derivative?" I replied, "Sorry, I don't understand, I'm a humanities person." She said, "Then how did you do your homework?" Ugh, I feel like a student who didn't do her homework 🤣🤣 I advised her to call Senya and gave her his number. I feel like he'll come home from swimming and be mad 🤣🤣 But seriously, I can't handle these super intellectual conversations 🤷 She's been calling me since first grade to consult about homework. For the last couple of years, it feels like she's not consulting anymore, but just boosting her self-esteem by highlighting my math cluelessness... Maybe I should just sit down and study these functions and derivatives myself, so I can easily keep up with the conversation next time...
My little one was invited to a birthday party. It's for her best friend from her old preschool group…

😂 I don't see anything awkward

Pfft.
I used to be a straight-A student, math and history were my jam..
Now I can't even remember how to help Vika with her first-grade homework…
Thank goodness my kids don't ask me for help.

I didn't understand what you were talking about either 😄

I'd say my daughter does her homework herself without my help, and I don't plan on getting involved. I don't care what she thinks about it. Maybe she'd give up faster.
Although, I get what you mean :)))

Anna I was a good student too, but it feels like they taught me something else 🤣🤣 I stopped understanding in 3rd grade, but I still tried then. From 6th grade on, I don't even bother...

Anna Same here. I don't remember everything.

Come on, be proud of Senya's math successes!)

What is this string of letters you wrote 😆
Give Senya's number. Maybe I'll explain to my daughter too))

Olga You're still too early for that 🤣 I should probably understand at least a little of what my child is learning, otherwise they'll ask me about homework and I'll just stare blankly and have to resort to AI 🤣

Well, I didn't do it either, I finished school a long time ago.

Oh, mine are doing their own thing, I don't interfere. Mine was talking about roots yesterday and I was already lost. Why bother getting into more? I even forgot chemistry and biology.

Anna No, I'm not trying anymore.

Tatyana K Last year I used to say that, she was always calling when I was on duty, I told her I was at work and that her son should call mine himself. But they're not friends, her son doesn't want to call 🤣

🤣 I would have burst out laughing after her comments and asked her to switch to Russian. I'm an engineer, but honestly, the most I can do right now is find the square root of a number. What are these functions and equations? 🤡🤣 I would have said that if she needs help with math, she should go to a tutor, but definitely not to me. I feel like my son is going to have a hard time starting in second grade. I can barely remember the multiplication table now... and he has Peterson for all of elementary school.

I stopped sticking my nose into math at 7. At most, I peek into the room and ask, "Need help?" Mostly, no, but rarely, when help is needed, my move is "I'll call Dad right now":)))

Tatyana K Oh, so you understand, should I point out the dots or not? He'll come over, and I'll be like, 'Checked homework, missing dots' 😎 And let him think I'm no worse than Dima's mom 😎

I can't even imagine one of my child's parents calling me with such questions.
It's like something alien! )

I would most likely end the conversation as quickly as possible and would be scratching my head for a long time wondering why they called me with such strange questions.

Olga Peterson was with us until 7. Now, idk what's up...
