Don't feel bad.....my parents couldn't help me much past grade school. There is nothing wrong with that.....we don't hold it against our parents. I was always able to find a solution for myself. I stunk at chemistry & my neighbor did well in is....so.....thus the tutor....at least I got by. I was mostly able to not need help......just dug into the subjects deeply & found the answers myself. It was a struggle at times. I also struggled through my 2nd year of algebra...my best friend just breezed through it & her parents couldn't help her either....so she helped me in that subject too.

Just because you can't help your daughter do homework.....there are many other things that are important in life that you are probably more than qualified to coach her through.

My parents struggled just to get through high school.....I graduated from a community college with a music degree (AA)....& I graduated from the university with my BS in computer science & accounting information systems. I had the ability to far exceed my parents in the education world....but looking back at my parents.....I see the problems were in areas other than school that they couldn't help me with. Those were things that were far more important in getting along in the world than my education.

The other thing I also found out from even being a parent myself (I have a 27 year old daughter).....they usually learn more about what they don't want to do from us rather than learning the things we may be able to help with. To be honest....my whole life was based on learning from my parents what I didn't want to be like. I am sure my daughter learned the same from us.

Don't beat up on yourself because of homework issues.....be the best parent(s) you can....it will mean more in the long run than homework.
