Options:

A) Just being the snarky lady that I am, I would teach my son some basic neuroscience and have him draw a detailed diagram of synapses with an accompanying brain-based explanation. If the teachers are giving pap, the least they can do is accept a reasonable scientific explanation for the process of solving the questions.

B) Either that or craft a stream of consciousness story about the voices in my head competing for my attention with their respective answers. There would be creepy biblical references laced throughout.

C) Or write a long, detailed explanation in pig latin. Or Heiroglyphics.

D) Wildly inappropriate picture counters--drug paraphernalia, typically concealed body parts, adult "playthings".

Of course, this might not be a good way to get administrators on side, but it amused me to think about.

What is to give light must endure burning.
