me too
By Mary

Clip to ScrapBook   
I have not a parent, but a grandparent, who absolutely haunts the teachers on her grandson's team. He's going to repeat sixth grade, because the highest percentage he's had in any class this year has been 35. I mean, it's over, it's May, and the kid has flunked. Quit waiting in the hall for me in the morning, or hanging around outside the door, waiting for the dismissal bell to ring. She always wants to know what he can do, but the answer is that it's just too late, and since he didn't do anything all year long, he gets to do sixth grade again.

God bless these grandparents who raise their grandkids. They're heroes, and I admire her, but she truly is driving us nuts.
