Actually, at my school, detention is only handed out for bad behavior and tardies.

Well at my old high school, teachers would try to control the way you think, b/c they'd use grades as punishment. Detentions would come if you disagreed with the teachers

Yea your right and those classes should be availible for people who want to go that route with their career or life in the future but why should it be required for the rest of us?
Nah not really.

You are too smart a little brother to embrace ignorance with this much energy. And if you tell me who it is that is teaching you to discard knowledge in this way, I'll kick his ass up and down I-96.

Listen to us "older folk". You may not think it now...but these classes will help you to expand your mind. Am I using Algebra in my everyday life? No. But with my daughter starting it in school now, I'm glad I can help her out(at least a little). I remember saying the same thing when I was in school.......it's just the way it is. Ranting and raving about it isn't going to make it any easier on yourself. Just accept it............

I cook almost all of the weekend meals around here - and I can get down in the kitchen.
