[quote=Anonymous]Hygiene:  I never had any hygiene issues with my kids.  Who are this teens who don't want to bathe or brush their teeth?  I checked my DD for dress code violations in middle school when the male teachers always seemed to be checking the 13 year old girls out and reporting them. I once inadvertently bought her a sweater with a marijuana plant on it (I thought it was a cactus, lol!) - for some reason, she always had trouble finding that on school days!

Academics:  I would intervene if lack of effort was resulting in a C - although is it possible that a little more effort could lead to a B without extra tutoring?  Is the C because of not doing homework?  If so, simply doing the HW would probably help a lot.

My 15 year old doesn't put much effort into school and gets A-/B+ grades with some As so I leave him alone - he could get all As, but I don't want to be that mom who complains about a B+    He wouldn't be content getting a C;  he can kick it into gear when he needs to. [/quote]
