"Life sucks" - a post on my daughter's page
Recently I sent a Skype invite to talk to my daughter Stefani. When she did not respond, I instant messaged her a question, "Why does life suck?"
Her response was "A particular person and math." I can not help her with the person BUT I offered to help her with math.
Has she taken me up on it? No!
Maybe I suck at math. I do not think that is true.
How good am I in math? Well, I have had 5 math courses (Calculus and above) as an undergraduate, 4 for my Masters, and 2 for my doctoral work. In addition, I have instructed college courses up to advanced Calculus. I probably know more math than 99.99999% of the people on the planet. That is not an exaggeration.
So why doesn't my daughter call and get help? A very good question. It could be just being prideful. It could be just "too busy". You know how busy teenagers get. LOL
Today's question is:
"What keeps you from seeking qualified help when it is available?"
