Is your high school senior still going to school?
I seen non stop TikTok videos today of high seniors going to school once a week, and failing every class and missing over 20 assignments thinking it’s “slay”! I know it’s not happening at my DC school in FCPS so it’s this an outlier ? |

| Nope. He wouldn't do that because he wants to be allowed to use a car, and continue having his phone, internet access at home, etc. |

| Yes, those five AP classes aren't going to take themselves. |

DS is leaning towards not taking AP exams, but he still wants to get straight As and he has difficult classes, so... no slacking off. Plus, can't college admission be rescinded if you get too many bad grades?

| Last year, about this time, by then-senior started missing a lot of early morning classes. But he was very on top of his assignments, and made sure he completed them as required. He also had IB projects and exams, so he couldn't totally check out. He finished the year with straight A's but definitely was missing classes on a regular basis. |

| Why are you even looking at TikToks of high school kids? Is your job so undemanding? |

Seek help for your bizarre obsession with redshirted kids. It’s creepy. |

np- do you know what obsession means or do you just throw that word around when you don’t like something? |
