My brother's a pefect example of one of those kids you wonder about. You look at him and think "Nice kid but what will become of him?" He lacks logic, study skills, etc. He writes like a second grader, dislikes reading, is mediocre in math at best, hates physical labor of any kind (My Dad called home today and asked that my brother pick up the potatoes he left laying on the rug and place them in a bucket so he could come home and carry them outside. My brother whined "I haven't even gotten to step inside my room yet, I'm always so busy." Mind you, the kid doesn't have ANY chores and never does his homework. Then, he whined about the dirt so I ended up doing it for the lazy wimp.) and has no talents.
He thinks studying for 30 minutes in study hall for a test is enough...then he wonders why he fails his tests. It's like, no matter how long he's been in school, he was never taught what studying is and I can't get that kid to bring his books home for the life of me.:grumpy:
As if that school isn't bad enough, they're having problems with a loony student running around sticking people with a needle. He just walks up to you and pokes you with it and no one knows who's doing it or why. They say they're working on it but my Dad has decided to call down and see what's up before sending my brother back. He's afraid because the teachers told him it's a dangerous situation since they don't know what the kid is doing and they think he's using the same needle which could end up infecting someone.
