To think Google classroom is just a new ring of hell

When I was 8, 30 years ago now, our homework used to be "bring in five bottle tops" or "make sure your mum signs this school trip form".
We now have a homework diary with stuff to do, a special app with the same stuff, but just enough different stuff that you need to check it daily, and now this morning I get a notification with an "assignment" to watch a video....a video for me...on how to attach homework into Google classroom. Which confirms what I always suspected, that homework is for parents. Aibu to take the handy "if you don't want to receive notifications from Google classroom, click here"?!

You are being ridiculous. The reason why they are showing you how to attach assignments is so you can help your child. If you jave been doing your child's homework stop its cheating

Not had the pleasure of Google classroom yet but I can agree that homework is for parents. We live abroad and it's so overly complicated : take this book, refer to page 976 in the other book, cut out this small piece of paper, write XYZ on it, stick it in another bloody book etc ad nauseum.
Why are you doing it and not your child?
