And you have. You did not, however, say for how long, so that's out of the equation. Now it's a matter of how much cat piss you can stand.

Did you talk to the school psychologist Juni? My friend's son has similar things going on and ADD is suspected. Super-bright, but will do nothing on his own volition except read or play computer. She's always suspected something but never really pursued it because he is the youngest in the class and the teachers felt he'd get there eventiually and then was told that it's starting to really affect his work and that there doesn't have to be a hyperactive part to ADD. I'm not saying your son has this, or that my friend's cone does -she only heard this last week, but just that maybe it's worth ruling it out?

and what Bruce said re the cat.

God we're all having seriously crappy times right now, aren't we? Bloody human race.....

Juniper · 11-11-2009, 04:03 PM

Yup. We had him evaluated for ADD about a month ago. The answer was a resounding NO. He's just spoiled and passive-aggressive.

monster · 11-11-2009, 04:04 PM

It's children I tell you, if people stopped having children the aspirin market would tank. That would solve the global warming problem too.

But I think I'll keep him anyway. How can you resist this? With those dimples?

monster · 11-11-2009, 04:21 PM

or what about this taken in class by his teacher

.

xoxoxoBruce · 11-11-2009, 04:27 PM

Get that boy a haircut, and a suit 'n tie or uniform. That'll straighten him right out.

monster · 11-11-2009, 04:30 PM

I'd have better luck shaving the cat....

monster, I almost forgot to tell you. A couple weeks ago I ran into my cousin (the one I was sitting with at the bar when you arrived for dinner on your way home.) She asked if you had had fun and she said "what a cute family!"

I agreed. And really cool, too.
