Common Core Made Comedian's Daughter Cry
Activist Post
…and he just went on a Tweeting rant about it…
If you enjoy comedy, then chances are, you’ve become familiar with Louis C.K. at some point. Along with filling up auditoriums with his stand-up comedy, he has had success with television shows and a memorable appearance on Conan O’Brien. Remember ‘Everything’s Amazing and Nobody’s Happy‘?
Comedians are often vocal, but not always political. Imagine the havoc Common Core is creating if a comedian takes to Twitter on his off time to vent about it?
Louis didn’t just leave his frustrations at one Tweet – he left a spree of them that seems to keep going (below) – complete with pictures.
My kids used to love math. Now it makes them cry. Thanks standardized testing and common core!

A huge amount of my third graders time is spent preparing for and answering questions like this. pic.twitter.com/WU5tEo8JRO

“Why [m]ight you want each picture to stand for more than 1 balloon?” Yet again I must tell my kid “don’t answer it. It’s a bad question”

Sorry. I sit with my kids as they so their HW they devour knowledge. When it’s hard they step up. Their teachers are great

But it’s changed in recent years. It’s all about these tests. It feels like a dark time. And nothing is going in anymore.

It’s this massive stressball that hangs over the whole school. The kids teachers trying to adapt to these badly written notions.

Interestingly, his Tweets appear the same day of news that Indiana has formally abandoned Common Core curriculum.
Louis C.K.’s story of his daughter crying isn’t the first.
A photographer going through her camera accidentally caught this snapshot of her daughter crying in frustration from Common Core homework. She writes about the incident here.

Oh, all the government is trying to do with Common Core (I PROMISE the government has their hands ALL over it! – Dept of Education, anyone???) is to find out which of America”s children are clever enough to make up a huge bullsheet story for the answer to their stupid, heart-rending math problems, so they can ‘discover’ their next round of DC politicians. The ones that can bullsheet their way through school, instead of buckle under the pressure of trying to do well, will be chosen to head the USA- just like the dimwit that is in the hotseat right now.
