Keep dumbing down America. Good plan. Soon we'll all be ranch hands...on some foreign owned US ranch.

Back when I was in school, a teacher would tell you that only about an hour should be all that was needed for this homework. What they didn't say was that there were 6 other teachers who felt the sasme way.

As the parent of two sons on a working ranch, I used to be angry and upset at the amount of homework my boys had. They caught the bus at 6:45, and got of the bus at 4:15. When they got home they would sometimes have 2 or 3 hours of homework. I couldnt work a ranch hand that many hours in a day! I also needed my boys for ranch work, and they were too busy with make-work. Sometimes the teacher didn't even bother to grade the assignments!
