[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 617694, member: 2196"] Last week I felt so bad and so worn down that I actually thanked easy child for going to school every day when I picked him up one afternoon. difficult child wasn't in the car with us. I never would have said it in front of her. But seriously I am so grateful to my son, and others like him, for doing what they're supposed to do. easy child looked at me like I was a crazy woman, and increduloulsy asked, "Why are you thanking me for going to school every day? Thats' something I should be doing anyway. Why would you thank me for doing what I'm supposed to?" What a great kid. Every kid should have his attitude, but unfortunately they don't. He seriously has no idea. He isn't in high school yet. I'm sure that in a year's time, he will understand that not every kid goes to school just because it is expected of them. I just hope and pray he continues to love school and continues to take pride in having perfect attendance and good grades. [/QUOTE]
