[QUOTE="Andy, post: 246037, member: 5096"] Looks like I am up with you! I am so sorry. I know how frustrating the homework issue is. Our latest is that as I was going through completed graded work the end of last week, I found a page of a packet that was blank and marked "Do" on it. difficult child stated he did not have to do it because the teacher didn't specifically hand it back to him or say anything about it. The hours we agonized over that just to get him to do 5 very easy spelling problems. There is the list of spelling words on the page. You read a sentence and determine which word is spelled wrong (Gee, do you think it could be a spelling word?) and write the correct spelling on a blank. Just FIVE (5)! Ugh So, I multiply that feeling by 1000 and come a little closer to where you are at. My difficult child has two months before his big trip (without me or husband) and is starting to get nervous. We are up now and can not find his stress eraser. My kids are so careless with their expensive electronics. I know his gameboy has been missing for a long time also. However, I really need to find that stress eraser for his trip! I feel so bad for your difficult child. Departure time is coming so quickly! How is the weather looking? Are they taking that snow out of the forcast? I know he is concerned about the icing on the plane? I know how you feel about your son not believing you. I always got frustrated and looked at it like my kids do not "trust" me. I know that is not the case but I always personalized it. They see us as parents, we are not doctors and only doctors/nurses REALLY know! Because as you grow up, you learn that when you are sick, a doctor makes you better, not a parent. Argh!!!! I think I will write some new children's books where the child goes to his parents for the answers of EVERYTHING! The house is on fire? A friend fell out of a tree? You are lost? Call Mom, she is super smart and will tell you how to deal with it. Much better than a 911 call! Mom is busy at work? Then call Dad! I hope your difficult child can settle down for school and find some rest before departure time. So, my difficult child woke about 2:00 am unable to sleep and I am still up at 3:00 am. I am sending my sleep dust to your home - I think you guys need it more! We can go one night without sleep. [/QUOTE]
