kalidarkone said:I freaked out on Wednesday as masterdarkone was late home and his phone was switched off..... I called the school who didnt know if they had seen him that day!!!and then I called the bus company who were engaged, so I wnet ot get on the car to look for him and the he appeared, I was crying by this time
Oh well I bollocked him about forgetting to charge his phone up... and lopped 10 mins of his bed time and barred him from the pc for the rest of the week......
The point I tried to get across to him that if he does everything when he gets home, and remembers to turn his phone off so it dosent run out of juice then it will all be much better... he gets on the pc and he forgets everything (sound familiar) I think he understands that its stressful for me as well letting him out in the big wide world. Anyway he seems to have got the jist now, the sanactions seem to nip it in the bud pretty sharpish

He's getting 3 different pieces of homework a night, I think they are going easy on them the first week as 2 pieces have simply been "to cover and decorate workbook". He's started learning French now as well. I started teaching him the basics when he was on year 2 so he's finding it easy.curly said:

Nowadays no one really cares how you wear your uniform..that's in my friend circle anyway. People that do still have a 'dress code' are only the chavs really and they all look..well...like chavs. Oh and the 'popular' girls..who incidentally aren't really that popular anymore,who all have the same hair,same coat and same orange faces from wearing too much foundation.

Bit lilke my school but en masse rule breaking soon got around that... no chance of them bothering with 100 plus students into detention or whatever.
Plus - back to those coats innit
Isn't it half term? All the teens I've seen today looked fit to burst with joy.
That post you quoted was made 7 years ago.
Presumably cool parents now have to buy two school ties so that they can be crocheted into a hat brim warmer?

You've already come to the mods attention and not at all in a good way, and not just because of your excessive use of exclamation marks.2005
Re reading the thread reminded me why I like(d) it here so much. I should come around more often ....
