You don't help me.

The most common complaint I hear these days is, "You don't help me."

I do help. I don't give answers or do work for students. It seems we need to work on the difference between the two.

So, no, I won't tell you what the answer is. But I will sit beside you and help you figure it out. Because, my dearest friends, you have wonderfully creative brains that have the potential to change this world. A few math questions can't stop you unless you won't accept the hand held out to walk with you and instead insist on sitting in the corner and feeling sad that it's going to take work on your part as well as mine.

Please walk with me. I know we can do this together.
