It's your fault, accept the shame and teach her.

I wouldn't put it that bluntly.... but yeah. OP you can't shame your child for not knowing something you should have taught her. Teach her, kindly, explaining why things are done a specific way.

I try to help my gf but she gets insanely annoyed at me

It's your fault, time for the late-term abortion

Just to be clear it is called a post birth abortion and its really only ethical if they are 10 or less

So like, everybody?

I can't speak for you, but I'm over 10 years of age.

To the shame corner with them!

They don't learn some things, even if you teach them a 100 times.

Then you're probably teaching wrong.
