Ahh More LOWlights--MIDTERMS!

Auteur's picture

So VD's midterm average is a 51. She even managed to fail the Chorus midterm exam this marking period. I knew it was only a matter of time. See there's this pesky thing called "rehearsal" and "practice" that the skids loathe. VD just wants to show up for the glory--aka final performance.

Lots of "student not working to ability" "inconsistent effort" "student is failing the quarter" "student may fail at present level of performance" "needs to improve skill and workmanship in class" "attitude is indifferent" (she's failing Art as well).

In her special ed class "wastes time in class" "does not accept criticism well"

And the *athletic* VD just squeaked by in PE!! with a 65!! (65 is pass/fail here in NY) Usually she gets fairly good marks there as well due to her so-called "athleticism" (aka big for her age).

More special ed notes:

"VD continues to struggle with effort and focus" (editor's note: DUH!!! She's never been made to sit still for five minutes, nevermind actually study and do homework)

"VD needs reminders to stay on task and not talk out of turn" (editor's note: but, but, but VD is PERFECT just the way she is! The world REVOLVES around every utterance out of her rosebud lips doncha know)

"VD is making less than anticipated progress but MAY still achieve the goal"

"VD will receive weekly counseling to improve self-confidence/self-esteem" (Editor's note: But VD thinks and has been told she's PERFECT the way she is!!! How RUDE of other people to tell her that she ISN'T perfect. . .the NERVE. . . doing so is DESTROYING VD's self-confidence/self-esteem!)

The entire report is filled with "less than anticipated progress" and "student is easily frustrated and gives up quickly" " Unless VD FEELS LIKE IT she will not do the work" (and that is BOLDED on the report!!!)

(Editor's note: Yeah, this is what happens when you non-parent a child and just let them have anything they want)

SNIFF SNIFF The smell of TROUBLE ahead!! I smell out of control boy crazy teen!!

Does she live with you all the time. I hate the little bastards and dont know why bm do not take care of their own responsibility of their own useless pieces of shit. I hate these two perfect little assholes living under my room too ages 18 and 21 and as useless as tits on a bull so I can certainly relate. I do not even want to make eye contact with these pukes i hate them so bad. DO THEY EVER GO AWAY????

Nope, she and her older brother PASed out over 3 years ago. The youngest, Prince Hygiene, PASed out over 2years ago. Of course it's ALL my fault according to biodad! Oh and this MOTY has been allowed to adopt two more foster children!!

You haven't had a mortgage in 6 years. . . why on EARTH are you looking at your credit score???

Moot point.

They come in the mail (thanks to me; the BM was talking the school district into NOT sending them to biodad; I put a stop to that)

There are those of us who like to keep apprised of the situation so we can defend against the future train crash. This is the only reason I even listen when SO talks about grades or SD's behavior. I need to know what is coming so I can be prepared for the 18 year old SD who still has two more years to get D's and who may want to come live with us. OR even worse, try to waste my time asking for help for college applications.

its going to happen. IT is really GOING to happen. My SD is predictable. GG is predictable.

I think once they get older it could happen, the ping-pong between houses could begin. They could try. GG would love it and push for it.
I think if her skids were going to get something out of it, yes they'd do it.

No sense in feeding the trolls. Comments about "don't think the SKIDS would want it" IOW SKID and BM centric=PASinator BM troller

@BMof6: Yes, my mortgage comment was APT not MOOT as your comment was. You sound very much like GG "Why worry about what the Behemoth does?"

I told him if she is capable of making a false report to CPS and stealing money then not reporting it to the IRS, then expecting us to pay the taxes, penalties and interest after I did all the paper-leg work to get it reduced, she's capable of ANYTHING!

Forewarned is forearmed.

except we only have them 50% of the time and 15 & 12.... 18 & 21, those assholes should be out!

Military school wouldn't take her. Maybe reform school/juvi. Which is where she's headed anyway. The Behemoth wouldn't do thhhaaaaaattttt to her widdle bitty princess (about 5' 7" now). What about her frrrriiiiiieeeennnnnndddssss??!!! VD posted on FB that her "friends are her life." Too bad she seems to go through friends like crap through a goose! She uses her "friends" then disses them.

Auteur's picture

you make me smile! Her and Prince Hygiene, the Behemoth and the Wookie need to drop off a cliff somewhere!

I had a list of numerous people to dropkick off cliffs, including the creepy ex's of several friends... Would you like to add to it? }:)

I would read the SK's report cards if they came to my house. For one, any time extra they spend in high school is one more year we would have to pay child support.

It comes to my house-I am opening it. My husband and I trust each other that way, though. I guess some others don't have that relationship. Sad

What works for US does not involve mistrust, disrespect or anything that you are lumping all people who open their spouse's mail under.

Have a nice day. Smile

I think you must have the type of husband who is 1) bothered by you knowing about the personal details of his life or 2) has something he needs to hide.

That is really odd that you equate opening mail with respect, LOL. My DH doesn't care if I open his mail, so why would he consider it disrespectful??? :?

I don't see what this has to do with trust, unless this is just some hot button issue with you for some reason. Ah, well. WE don't know what goes on in other people's households, do we?
