I think my DH 'gets it' more than I do in some ways, and less in others. He was much like my sons are, whereas school went at a reasonable pace for me. What he doesn't get, however, is why I haven't somehow managed to get the school to accommodate them better. When he is back in the country in a few months, I think he will need to go in and talk to the teachers himself, before things get busy again. No complaining allowed if he isn't willing to follow through and do a better job, right? That is my theory, at least.
