Rachel....dear, I am a Geezer Dad. I can't even keep my own cell phone number in my head, let alone solve long division.

War of Words
Another war of words breaks out between me and my 9 year old daughter, Rachel, over piano practice. With me haranguing her to persevere and not give up on the harder pieces, she counters by declaring that she doesn't have to do what she doesn't want to do. A few tearful rounds ensue, and in mid argument, she accuses me of rude inattentiveness. Instead of listening to what she is saying at the moment, she claims, I am just doing math problems in my head!
