Answer 7

No way. She knew she was responsible to learn the material. She chose not to. So now it is consequences time.
She posted it before and I had led her almost to the answer and she ran away. Then posted it again because all she wanted was for someone else to do the work.

Answer 8

Nothing. This generation is pampered and spoiled. They think they should be rewarded for just being alive. They have been told their entire lives how great everything they do is. They are the "everybody gets a trophy" generation so they don't think they should have to work at anything. How do you think we have such a bunch of nitwits in positions of responsibility and not performing. Even the president...President Passerby...I didn't know...I wasn't involved...I can't comment because there is an investigation.
