Thanks, I hate it

By pinpin - This FML is from back in 2008 but it's good stuff - France

Today, I helped my son do his maths homework. He got a C and won’t talk to me anymore. FML

Geez, there's nothing wrong with calling it "maths". That's what I call it! Are you so ignorant that you don't have any idea people in other parts of the world spell it differently? I don't mock Americans when you guys spell things that I consider wrong! E.g, American: "Fetus" Australian: "Foetus", American: "Airplane", Australian: Aeroplane, American: "Mom" Australian: "Mum"

'english and grammer'? I sure hope you mean 'English and grammar', you idiot. At the very least, try to not make yourself look stupid when accusing others of being stupid.

its not just the spelling but the pronunciation. maths is a double plural

You don't say "mathematic," you say "mathematics." Hence the "s"

Thanks #7 I was gonna say that too. And I'm also American...

Maybe he should ask the person giving him the test instead of someone who isn't giving the test and can't help on specific problems and another possibility is that you helped and he just can't regurgitate material you helped him with don't fyl over your kids test

Idiots saying learn to spell in lots of places math is called maths especially in Europe.

You probably should have brushed up on your math.
