Kids’ Homework Stumps Parents, Sparks Online Discussions
Some parents are baffled by their children’s homework, leading them to seek help from online communities like Reddit and Twitter. Various users offered their thoughts, with some finding humor in the tricky questions.
A first-grade English assignment had a mom puzzled when asked to match the sound of “fin” with a hamburger bun, frog, jar lid, and spoon. Some Reddit users pointed out that “bun” and “spoon” could be correct because they both end with “n.” Another parent struggled with a kindergarten worksheet showing a rabbit, with “pet” being suggested as the correct three-letter word. In third grade, a math question asked, “Janell had 15 marbles. She lost some of them. How many does Janell have now?” A Reddit user jokingly responded, “She has some left.”
Online communities have become a go-to resource for parents facing tricky homework questions, with users offering a mix of serious and humorous solutions.
