[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 566086, member: 1514"] In my mind it matters why the assignments arent being done. If the kid is doing them and simply forgetting to do turn them in, thats one thing. If the kid is so overwhelmed at the end of the day because of holding it in all day, thats one thing. However if the kid is simply not doing his classwork because he dont wanna and no one is gonna tell him what to do and he doesnt want to do homework because he wants to spend all after school time with his friends or on the computer, well, I dont think that qualifies as something he should be allowed to rewarded for and have people give him an out. That just teaches them that they are special and the world will continue to treat them as special and trust me, it wont. [/QUOTE]
