I'm so lame...I actually enjoy the routine of school!mom_of_2_princesses said:I am with you! I like being able to go places and do things. No homework or getting up early. Now we have to have a routine everyday.
Okay well maybe not thoroughly did I enjoy the routine of high school...but I do of college. At least I always know what I will be doing?
My kids all have alarm clocks. BLARING SCREAMING iPods going off for HOURS! The bugle, fife & drum corp could bang in their rooms and they wouldn't wake up!PirateCutie05 said:
My mom never got on my case about homework during high school...which might actually be a bad thing!Okay maybe not never...but she really didn't make sure that I had it done everyday. I don't think it's a bad thing on her part...it's just I wasn't into school during my high school years so I avoided the subject.
I had an alarm clock in high school so waking me up wasn't usually an issue for my mom at the end. Unless of course my alarm clock didn't wake me up...or go off...

I think the kids do like the routine. It is us mom's that don't like it. My DD never complains. I do all the complaining.PirateCutie05 said:

LCTsMom said:That's awesome! I am glad that Conor is interested in taking advantage of the opportunity. He had Algebra Honors last year in 7th grade. He actually begged for the Geometry Honors class that he's in this year. There are kids in 11th grade that aren't on his math level! If he can continue like this he'll have some great opprtunties in his future! I am in awe! It's also wonderful that his school is able to accomodate him with these advanced classes. There is a high population of kids who are in similar situations. It's amazing.
It's sad that you felt that way about dropping out. They really need to cater to the gifted kids as well as the kids with learning issues. There truly is a need for it!

I can't even IMAGINE being that smart. LOL I honestly don't know where my kids get it from.Piecey said:I agree, that is excellent. I got to take Geometry a year before everyone else, too.. but I was technically "in" the high school at that point (9th grade) so it wasn't so fancy schmancy of a big deal.![]()
I took Vocational Classes at an attempt to get out of the school and away from the mind-numbing monotony but even those were a joke to me. I finished them with honors and barely went there, either.

We live in a townhouse, I can only imagine what my neighbors hear.mom_of_2_princesses said:

Dang! 26 days total?? Woooww...I only skipped once and it wasn't my fault and it was only one class and it was a half day. Although I did get pulled out for a lot of vacations and hunting for colleges.![]()
They couldn't do much because I was passing and my insomnia being so severe gave me a constant Dr's excuse. If I didnt sleep, I wasn't allowed to drive. I don't live "in" town so I couldn't walk. Soooo even if I slept, I could not go to class and get away with it by saying I hadn't slept..
They couldn't complain too much, either, because I was doing better than most of the students who went.
Goodnight, Lisa.LCTsMom said:I'm going to go, too. My house is quiet, might as well take advantage and get some sleep. God only knows who'll be up with what problem in the middle of the night.![]()
Night all!![]()
I hope everyone in your house feels better soon and stays healthy!
I think I'd be scared if my alarm clock was ever that loud! Sometimes even mine can startle me at times!LCTsMom said:My kids all have alarm clocks. BLARING SCREAMING iPods going off for HOURS! The bugle, fife & drum corp could bang in their rooms and they wouldn't wake up!![]()
