My period started today.
Caity wigged about going to preschool this morning. My sympathy was non existent. All I kept thinking was “By all that is holy, if I do not get two hours of silence today I will lose my freaking mind..you are soooo going to school”
Thankfully CH sensed the danger and got up and ‘helped’ me get her to school. He was great..he played with her and the other kids till she settled down.
He is wigging about his non work right now. This is not fun.
Anyway.
Adam brought home his ‘report card.’
“Adam continues to be an inquisitive student who really enjoys working with the computers (playing on YTV.com instead of learning!). His attitude, effort and behavior, however, require some improvement. Adam concerns himself with the work of others and must let the teachers know what is going on. (Adam is a busy body) Furthermore, he still rushes through his work, making careless errors. When things do go his way, or if Adam is asked to correct his work, he raises his voice in objection. (Really???) Adam continues to work towards the goals of the Kindergarten curriculum.”
The italics are mine…..if you didn’t get that.
So basically, Adam is exactly the same at school at home.
Currently he is upstairs weeping and wailing because I asked him to put his books back. Books that he hauled out last night to read instead of going to sleep at 10 at night. OOOOOh the injustice.
This in between asking to play Star Wars Lego over and over (video game). I am now the evil one (beat that Darth) because I won’t let play OR his dad. Mainly because everytime I say STOP playing there is a huge scene.
I don’t have the patience for the scenes anymore.
He is thrashing around moaning about how life sucks.
Sigh.
Not even 6.

Sounds like my Alex, except his teacher seriously hates him, which started as her seriously hating me, because when she sent a note home after he’d been in school for 22 some odd days way the beginning of the year, and told me he was going to fail kindergarden I marched right up to the school the next day with this, what the HUH attitude…um, anyway. Nuff about that.
Today, Alex said “life sucks but I’m getting used to it” and I said “why do you say that?” and he said “well, you know, everyone you love a lot just dies and then you get sad.”
aww babes

Kids are used to say things like that. I remember having the same thought when I was 11. You can be strict to them, it is not wrong. Kids should be thought on what are prioritites and when to have fun. I remember those day my Dad turn off the TV while I am playing Playstation 1. That time I feel like hating him. Now when I am almost 30 now, I feel thankful to him. What will happen if my dad allowed me to play video games for hours everyday. I might not getting into the university, getting a great job and able to buy a house.
