OMG! My kids just don’t get it! We’ve been doing this for how long? Three years? You’d think after spending most of the summer doing extra homework because you couldn’t get it done during the day that you would finally understand that if you just did it, you would have a lot more free time than you have now! I know, run-on, but I get so frustrated with my kids. They spend most of their morning playing and hoping I won’t notice that they aren’t doing anything. Then I find out and have them doing homework into the wee hours of the morning. They know how to log into their computer. They know exactly what they are supposed to be doing, they just don’t do it. I keep telling them that if this keeps up the only phrase they are going to need to remember is ‘D’you want fries with that?’
There has got to be a better way. And I haven’t found it yet.
