[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 627989, member: 3419"] So, difficult child said that the movie was shown in World History. Grrr. Don't worry, I'm not going to email that teacher. At least I can see some relationship to the topic. And, difficult child said he was told to review a math homework sheet he'd done the other day. Did he? No. He texted during math today. He called today to ask if I could pick him up after school. I said no, because I have to drive to another city to drop off 3 paintings for a show and I wouldn't be back in time. Unless he wants to drive ... he said yes. (He really wants the practice and needs the hours behind the wheel.) I said actually, that won't work because we'll end up in rush hour traffic. Plus, the handyman would be here at noon and I wouldn't be ready until after 1:00. He said no problem, pick me up then. I asked if he could just leave in the middle of class and he said why not leave now? I said what time does the movie start? He said now. So I said go ahead and sit there and I'll get there when I can. NOW he says it was too noisy and he didn't hear what I was saying. Uh huh. He has to leave his phone at home for the next three days, including Saturday. And he has to apologize to the principal and the math teacher first thing in the a.m. I'm going to come up with something else ... the only good thing about keeping him alive is that if he were dead, I couldn't think up more punishments for him ...
