My mom makes me angry with some remarks.

Like when i am saying that i dont have many lessons for today or dont have it at all.
She is being like :
"Oh, no. What are we paying for? In my ages we were studying for whole day and how much time did you studied? Only 3 lessons (6 hours)? Damn what a waste of money!"

I mean it's not exactly what she likes telling. I am trying to tell hers point.

Like. What's wrong for having less study hours then in previous generations? What is this kind of cult of overworking???
