I think part of it is you have a girl and she has a functioning brain (by all evidence). it's pretty much WWIII over here. daily. to get up and on the bus, to get homework done, to get instruments practiced, to get gym clothes washed and packed again, to not forget his blasted lunch. y'know. i'm figuring somewhere around may he'll get the hang of it. but then again, maybe i'm too hopeful? ;o)Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00015313115711205106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508414439548446424.post-87193622738995580982013-09-30T19:28:13.404-07:002013-09-30T19:28:13.404-07:00Oh.

I know what I have for homework.<br />Dave: So what did you have for homework?<br />Child: Study Arabic, write a summary about this article in Nat Geo. <br />Dave: So why did you bring home your science book and your Math book? <br />Child I don't know.<br />Dave: Do you have homework in science or math?<br />Child: No<br />Dave: Where is your arabic? <br />Child: I left it at school.<br />Dave: (Face turning red) So how are you going to do your homework?<br />Child: (Tears streaming down his face) Why do you have to treat me like a baby?
