O I am ticked!!!
As you know, difficult child has not been attending class regularly, nor doing the homework, nor doing the classwork regularly. Therefore, no surprise, she is at risk of failing.
Today, the school sent home a letter inviting difficult child to participate in an afterschool program, with a 1:1 tutor--to "assist" her with passing Math I.
As the parent, I am supposed to agree to arrange transportation, sign her agenda daily, and encourage her to keep up with her work.
Yeah, beacuse that's been working real well so far!
I don't have the slightest inclination to drive her to tutoring, nor battle about homework, nor sign agendas...
I have been reminding and reminding and reminding difficult child to do her homework all year. Why is it my problem to now make special arrangements for her??? I am really angry about this!
What do you think? Am I right to be angry?
Should I swallow my feelings and do this stuff so that difficult child can pass?
Or should I say "Tuff Nuggies"--since you have not bothered to do anything until now, you can suffer the consequences...?
I know what I WANT to say...they can take this special program and...well...you get the idea.
