[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in a similar boat, OP. Although, in some classes, I really feel that an "A-" should be the lowest acceptable grade. I make exceptions for those subjects that I know DS finds more difficult. Anyway, in those cases when I notice an assignment was not done or not turned in (particularly frustrating as he went through the effort to do it but just didn't turn it in!), I take the phone. I figure he probably lost track of schoolwork because he was focused on other things. [b]Since he is usually focused on his phone and all that comes with it, the phone becomes mine. [/b] Once he can show me that he rectified the situation (turned in an assignment or spoke to a teacher about getting extra help or something), he gets it back. [/quote] Same + videogame system. IME, if homework isn't getting done it's because they are ignoring the rule that homework comes before electronics. [/quote]
