[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this was K or 1st, I'd have some sympathy.  For a HS Jr with AP classes, he should stop whining and get to work.  30 pages reading a day plus a paper is not something to complain about.[/quote]

I think it was 30 pages per day, two papers, plus studying for AP subject test.  I have sympathy even for a high school junior who chose to take AP classes.  The academic pressure is high these days.  If he was planning to study for the AP subject matter test and then having some down time, I can see how he would feel stressed when 30 pages per day of reading plus two papers got added to the mix.  These are kids.  I would also feel sorry for a college kid studying for a test who, right before spring break, is told they also need to do two papers and read 30 pages per day.  I know if right before a vacation I had a major work assignment added that needed to be done by the time I got back, I'd do it because it's my job, but I can't say I wouldn't be disappointed.
