Life in Sock's house

Child: "This is so much homework it's not fair why so much homework!"

Sock: "It was one hour of homework. It took you three hours because you rushed, did a lazy job, and wrote messily, so I made you keep correcting it. Had you done a slow and careful job the first time, you would have finished two hours ago."

Child:

Still 1 hour more than it should be

What episode is that clip from?

Silly Ankle Sock. It is an important lesson to learn, though.

This is how, hopefully, small children may learn about consequences and good self-management.

(But they won't)

Such is the plight of parents the world over.

This was probably me in elementary school. I have always been a curious person but only a slightly above average student in terms of study habits.

My coworkers have the same problem. Guess you never grow out of some things.

Ah, children. You spend the first eighteen months trying to get them to walk and talk, and then the next eighteen years trying to get them to sit down and shut up.

(Ponies can skip the walking because they're already quadrupeds)

Child: This is so much homework, it's unfair!

Syl: *Laughs and cries in adult*

Stop eavesdropping on my childhood! And my college years. And... um... Well, everything up until this week, actually.

(This explains my kids a lot, I suppose)

Amazing how this switch is when you enter the business world where your manager is constantly saying go faster go faster more shortcuts and you tell them if you let me be careful this will get done sooner

That's the real lesson homework teaches.
