I agree with most of your post, but it's larger than that now. My wife IS a teacher, a speech-language therapist actually and while I'm not a college boy, I'm also not illiterate. We sit with our 10 and 12 year old every night and try to help them, both are special needs. What's happened is that we are simply unable to assist them because we don't know how to help with their math. For that matter, the teacher doesn't understand how to help!

They just don't do it that way anymore. And they teach the kids to count on their fingers! It's nuts.
