Ahhhh The Electronic Grades
Well the reports are in on SS9's grades anyway. BM keeps saying how much "she's changed" since she got married and does homework with SS every night.
What a laugh
SS's Grades
Spelling 49%
Math 77%
Soc Studies 42%
Science 60%
Reading 66%
Every subject has missing assignments and F's on every test.
SO's reaction...It's all BM's fault.
Now don't get me wrong, BM sucks as a mother. He's already missed 5 days of school and they only just started on 12 Aug....BUT SS is soooo badly behaved in school, I've already met with his teacher 4x's, spoke with the behavior specialist and SO gets emails form his teacher 3-4x's a week. No way he can complete his work OR be learning anything with his out of control behavior.
The thing that makes me mad is, I have asked his teacher EVERY time I saw her if he had any missing assignments. I said even if he doesn't get any credit, we want him to do the work. He needs to learn the material. Every time, she said no. He was all caught up. And like I said, she's in constant contact with SO, why hasn't she said he's falling so far behind in his grades. The email content is only about behavior. I don't get it.
AHHHHHHHH...I don't want this kid living with me as an adult nor do I want to be paying his way for the rest of his life.

It think it means she's not
It think it means she's not going out as much, but she works nights in bar anyway. I don't get it either.
Time for a meeting with
Time for a meeting with everyone (BM, SO, teacher, behavior specialist, and you if you want to be involved and BM doesn't object) there.
Time for everybody to be on the same page.
SO and I have had meetings
SO and I have had meetings with the behavior specialist and the teacher. I guess it's time for another.
BM is always a no show for these meetings. I suggested to the school that they provide a separate meeting for BM because of this and she still hasn't shown. BM goes to the school once a year, and that's only to register them.
My SO makes so many excuses
My SO makes so many excuses for SS and SD. Part of me totally gets it. He's only 9. Unless someone is making him sit down and do homework or study for test, he isn't going to do it. Also, he faces zero consequences during the week for being a total jackass in school during the day. SS has learned how to play the game. Act out of control during the week and then play the "I don't have mommy's help" card on the weekends with SO. I just don't have any answers anymore. If BM wasn't such as shitty person, maybe things could be different, but that's just wishful thinking. Never gonna happen.
I have share custody of my
I have share custody of my bio kids and school and homework discipline is very important to me - kind of a non-negotiable and the ante into any sport or extra curricular participation. Not important to exH. So I have the kids Mon-Wed and I make sure that all assignments are complete on my nights. I can't control what happens in the other household, so I do what I can when they are with me. The school sends all the weekly assignments home on Monday so we have two nights to complete together.
