[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 377427, member: 1169"] I'm sitting here feeling both ticked off and a bit ashamed. Piglet is totally taking forever to do her school work. Yesterday, she took 6 hours to read a 2 page history handout and answer 10 questions. I kid you not SIX HOURS. Today, she took almost 3 hours to copy 10 sentences and look up 10 definitions and copy them. THREE HOURS to copy stuff - she didn't even need to use her brain. Then she had do choose one of 5 options (that have been taught at school, all of which she has done with teacher guidance at least once). This should have been an easy thing. She just brought me her "work" to check. She did part of each of 3 different options. So clearly flipping wrong. AND IT TOOK HER OVER AN HOUR TO DO IT WRONG AND NOT EVEN IN COMPLETE SENTENCES. I lost it. I threw the work at her, told her to quit acting like an idiot who couldn't remember how to spell her own name and fix it. She tried to defend herself by saying that I hadn't told her to do it the way her teacher wanted it. I nearly ripped her head off. [/QUOTE]
