Err... What?

So my parents got pissy at me today for not starting summer homework (I would like to say that their claim is false, since I've finished chem, I just haven't started reading all those books), and my dad said, "This time is for you to concentrate on homework! If you want to relax, relax later!" Err... wait, what? Summer is for homework? First I've heard of that. And when do you expect me to relax if not now? Like I'm going to have any time during the school year with the course load I have? Anyways, sort of felt like pointing that out, but knowing my dad, he'd just flip out and get hella mad at me. Whatever.
