    Calvin is done with his homework; they have irreconcilable differences.

    Calvin could stop being done, but he’s no quitter.

    He really didn’t say the HOMEWORK was done.

    He should have just walked by without saying anything, but than I guess the strip would have been pretty boring.

    Calvin’s not a total loss. He doesn’t lie, but you have to ask the right questions.

    You could have just explained to her how Hobbes was reading it for you.

    A lawyer in the making: “Define done.” “Define homework.” “Define you.”

    Mom’s pose shows a certain ‘familiarity’ with Cal’s habits.

    Homework is an evil and time consuming. I never did it.

    Asking what your learned would be better. It could be shocking.

    I’ve had that feeling before. Not being done, but just being… done.

    She should have asked him if he had completed his homework as directed. Being idiomatic with kids can lead to really… ingenious interpretations.

    Love how Calvin tries to be vague, but the Mom sees right through it. Besides, if Calvin’s in first grade, it should be fairly easy to read (i.e. somewhat large type, like the books I read in first and second grade).

    Not much freedom in this ‘chapter’ of Calvin’s life.

    I was designated homework helper for our older granddaughter. She has a verbal learning disability that makes reading difficult. When she did answer questions about what you read assignments she was usually at a loss. I’d ask her “Did you read it?” “Yes,” she’d respond angrily. “Well, try reading it again,” I’d say. After that I’d suggest that she look for keywords in the text. Her fear of reading made her respond angrily to assignments like that. She’s 15 now and reads better. She also finally got recognition of her learning problems from the school and is getting real help. Her grade school was terrible in that regard.
