Common Core can't even get simple math right

This is what happens when a bureaucracy of know it alls control just about anything.  This is just another example of why government needs to return to a state where it does just the bare essentials.  Anything else it will just screw up.

How are parents supposed to help their children with Common Core math when it’s just flat-out wrong?

Parent Mina Boyd’s kindergartener was given an assignment to count the number of apples on the page and write the number. The worksheet is titled “Count and Write 20,” so presumably, there would be 20 apples to count.

Except there’s 19.
