Why doesn't "hache" follow the same rules as words like "agua" where the intial vowel is a stressed a?

ie, Why do we still say "la hache" and not "el hache" ?

I use this site everyday it is helping me with my Spanish but there is a problem. I would very much like to kwiz this and other topics again, that I have difficulty with, but I am unable to. The glitch in this link/program will not let me reKwiz no matter how many times I try. To reKwiz would help me to learn but the program is broken. 

Two of the examples use the pronoun "a".  For example "¿Tú traes a tus padres...?" and "Ellos traen al perro...".  Am I right in assuming that this only applies when there's a person or animal involved?  

Good day,

I would like to know why you also need to use the subject in the sentence when you already conjugate the verb in the proper form? I.e. Nosotros volvemos muy cansados instead of volvemos muy cansados? Thanks a lot and best regards,

FYI...This answer was marked incorrect:

Yo coincido contigo en ese tema. I agree with you on that subject.HINT: Conjugate "coincidir" in El Presente

One of the lessons included things that were happening in the past but are still ongoing. Instead of the present perfect, it included the present tense and then something else (it was not this lesson). Could you tell me where that lesson is or explain it to me? Thanks.

In the sentence 'Les amenecé seriamente' I don't understand why the indirect object pronoun 'Les' is used. I would have thought it would have been a direct object pronoun ie 'Los' or 'Las'. Are 'they' not the direct object of the threatening? I seem to often have a problem with this. It's ok when it's a straightforward 'I gave the present TO her' for example where it is quite clear but in sentences like the one above I get very confused as it often seems the indirect object pronoun is used. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hi - In your topic on El Condicional Simple, the description reads as follows : "El Condicional Simple expresses hypothetical actions that would or might happen in the past and in the future. It is also used to express wishes, to give advice and suggestions or to invite and ask in a polite way."

How does one differentiate between this description and the use of El Futuro Simple for the use in prediction, probability and speculation? Seems quite confusing and overlapping.

In the test section it says: "Los profesores ___ con los padres de los alumnos"

I thought that should be 'charlaron' because it is an action in the past which has been completed but the system says it is 'charlaban'. 

Please explain?
