Brace for Impact - 03

When the air raid siren goes off you have no time to react. The tactical airstrike autism ordered is go and it's hitting you, the adult, starting with the high pitch, mind destroying continuous squeal for mom or dad or something inaudible. It sounds like every idiot YouTube influencer raving on about something pointless for video stats needed for incomprehensible revenue generated online. The radio chatter is chaotic; the constant nagging, screaming, repeated phrases, more F bombs, we're in the middle of a fire fight on the battlefield of homework. We're been attacked by the second grade school curriculum homework. Seeing the early warning signs of an imminent attack before mom can I try to diffuse but my Intel is bad and l’m about to take a direct hit, brace for impact. The carpet bombing barrage of negative emotional processing falls like Hellfire's over Baghdad. Your air support isn't available, your evac team cannot engage. Sit tight soldier you're on your own. Writing sentences has been listed as a near act of terrorism with reading being the betrayal of global security. Every kid hates homework, maybe not Hitler, he probably loved writing sentences using verbs and nouns and reading about what, where, who, when, why and how. Getting autistic children to complete daily homework should be declared an act of torture in fact getting children to do homework at all should be declared torture. So begins my petition to the UN requesting the immediate disband of homework. Literacy is essential but the idea of bringing work home as a child or an adult in my opinion is torture. Needless to say, the UN has ignored my protest.

It was a rough week.
