I'm giggling right now, because this all reminds me that I started a new job this year, and they told me I had to fill out a timesheet. A timesheet! I didn't fill it out to see if they would pay me anyway. They did. smile Yeah, I don't like busywork either.

bluemagic, you give me hope, thank you. I think if we could get over this hump, maybe 8th grade would be good.

I had several conversations with adults at school this week about paying closer attention. He goes back tomorrow. Guard rails on, plans in place, fingers crossed.
