[quote=Anonymous]Lol, I'm pretty sure that my son had one or two of his elementary school teachers convinced that he was just not meant to be much of a student. Truth was, he enjoyed chatting, reading Diary of the Wimpy Kid books and more or less coasted academically at school. He did what was required, did pretty good on the standardized tests. He was good natured, sweet, an easy kid to have in class and he liked going to school (which is huge). PE, recess and lunch were his favorite parts of the day. We used to read together a lot at home so I knew that his reading level/comprehension was very good. He really didn't even start to apply himself academically until later elementary/MS and that was with some parental pushing. 10th grade is probably where he really started to put the pedal to the metal.....
