    This Common Core is ridiculous and should not be taught in our schools. It is confusing our children and deterring them from wanting to learn.

    Eliminate common core. The Federal Government does not have Constitutional authority to regulate education.

    Education should be decided by the teachers and parents.

    My child in 9th grade is having a very hard time with this common core crap. She is a A/B honor student. GPA is always been over 3.4... Now it is not.

    The dumbest thing the fed has done in a while (and thats pretty hard even for them when they manage to make dumb the norm) and its hruting our kids. It can take a simple mathematics problem and turn it into an entire page of work. End common core completely!

    Almost all of our children are struggling miserably in math because of this new standard. Statistics show that our children are falling behind in their math class or are failing altogether. This type of stress put on by our federal government is CHILD ABUSE and it must be stopped.

    I do not want Common Core math taught to the Elementary or Middle School students. If you want to introduce it then do it in the higher grades. I recently saw a problem of 43-13=30 This how it should be taught but in core math you had them do 6 different steps to get to the answer. I see no reason to have a child do 6 different steps to get an answer in 3. Get rid of Core Math. And by the way I read an article from people who think this math is great and they suggested if you can't help your child with the math then spend more money to learn this math or send your child to after school classes or to pay people to teach our children this math. Wrong, get back to teaching our children the right way.

    Please stop Common Core so that we can free our children from stress and anxiety at early age.

    Common core is ridiculous!!! My daughter is in 5th grade, and still cannot tell time or count money. To much time is spent on these so called "Math" problems, just to get them ready for a test, so your state scores look nice. What about what my daughter needs in life? I can't even help her with homework because, I don't even know what to do. She has failed assignments because I helped her.

    This math is ridiculous. It's making poor little kids have to do a thousand extra steps to get one answer. It's insane.

    Common core is just a bunch of nonsense for parents and kids. How in the world do you have to have three or fours steps to solve a simple math problem like adding 7+4???? Keep it simple not stupid

    Stop trying to make our children learn a more complicated way to get an answer. Allow them to get it the simplest way as long as they get the correct answer.

    Neither my wife, who is a certified elementary school teacher from the Philllippines, nor myself are able to make sense of Common Core math. It is a crime to take what used to be simple formulas to solve math problems and transform them into such convoluted procedures to arrive at the answer. This insanity needs to stop. We fully understand what the intent is with Common Core and we reject it outright.

    This Common Core is only hurting the kids and confusing them. If an Adult such as my self with multiply degrees has problems with it how are kids going to learn it.

    The schools are failing our children. The schools have sold out our kids for money. Common Core is a disgrace. The way my daughter is being taught simple math is insane. I can not do it. We are teaching her the regular way to do math and she has no problems with it. Our children are being taught to be stupid with this crap
