[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 258990"] :happy: He hung out with friends after school. That is so important to him. A week ago he said it wasn't worth even leaving the house. So I am glad. School got out at 11:30 cause they had finals. His initial plans fell through, but hooked up with some buddies. Proud of him. He came home. (after the big boom) but he said the kids lit up a bowl....and he isn't going to waste his time watching them get high.:happy: He played a video game with older brother....and they didn't fight! difficult child went to a friends house for a few hours. No arguments on the time he had to come home. He laughed. I haven't heard him laugh like that in a really long time. It was a real genuine laugh. I went to bed happy. Usually I am the one who deals with school/homework/grades. I make him re-do things....He failed his final exam for Algebra.:frowny: However even with (more than half wrong), 5 missing assignments that I gave up on (oh, by the way...those missing assignments was the section of the test he didn't understand)..he also had 5 incompletes.
