My wife (The Princess) was ask to take over 7-9 grade mathematics classes at our school. Algebra 1, Geometry, consumer math, and 7-8 grade science class. The boys and I have a few questions before she commits.

1)Me: Who will be be bringing me my lunch at 12pm sharp when I’m on the tractor!

2) Middle son : (He’s a senior) wants to know if she will be requiring homework turned in on time! That by the way is a deal killer grin

3) She: Ask that we help out more around here if she takes the job. I told her I make sure my socks are turned right side out every night and can’t possibly see what else I can do.

Not sure what to think. Advice will be greatly appreciated

On the serious side. She has spent many years raising us and is excited about the opportunity. Good things happen to great women!!

Don't do more than the Socks.

Get a French maid.

One that cooks. Cleans and does other necessities.

Good Luck! wink

I've heard it said:

Family insurance would be a benefit! And in the summer when she's off, she can still bring you lunch.
I enjoyed Algebra 1 so much I took it two years!!! Never figured out why X and Z is necessary in math.

She is so lucky to have you guys I hope she realizes that. I would be asking what percentage of this new revenue source she plans on you spending on hunting and fishing gear b4 I agreed to anything bud.

I taught 5-6th graders in a public school for 3 months as a fill in. That was in the late 90's. Dont think i could pull it off again with the way kids are raised today.

You learn algebra for the soul purpose of helping your kids when they have to learn it. It's a perpetual cycle.

man and here I thought I learned it to find the voltage drop after a resistor. or to find a missing value

trig and Geometry is where the real useful stuff is but you need some algebra to work it.

And carry her end of the canoe when needed.

Not my quote, but I've used it about a million times: "It's a lazy MAN that can't find his wife a second job!"
