Yeah-- if my DD isn't motivated, her "homework" can still expand like a gas until it fills every available opening in space and time....


maybe that is like a poison gas, actually. And like chemical warfare agents I really think that there ought to be some kind of international oversight of this problem.

blush But yes, also, to 11PM, not any measly 8pm. And it's not that she CANNOT do it... just that a union dockworker in a work slowdown has nothing on an unmotivated DD.

We know that this is a particular quirk produced by her personality, her perfectionism, and her PG-ness because when you make her MORE busy with additional activities, it goes away, and her performance often improves, even. Less time to sulk and fester over it, I suspect, and more "just do it" with a need for speed and efficiency.
