[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 359094, member: 4040"] My unfortunate habit of singing with the music in the grocery store was a great motivator for Miss KT. If she started acting up, I grabbed a can of PAM or something similar for a microphone, and really let it rip, complete with facial expressions and hand movements. It still works...I was dancing and singing "Top of the World" at the top of my voice in Kmart last week. Seriously, though, if your son isn't listening to you now, sneaking stuff etc., do you think he would listen to you about his schooling? Miss KT wanted me to homeschool her, and I flat refused, and I'm a teacher. The last thing I wanted was for her to be velcroed to my butt and fighting with me 24/7 about doing her schoolwork, and that's exactly what would have happened. Trying to help her with homework was bad enough, and I finally had to stop helping her, unless she behaved like a civilized person. You could try it for the summer if there's a subject he needs to make up, and see how it goes. [/QUOTE]
