[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You should remind him that school is his 40-hour-per-week job. [/b]Yeah, it is a pain, but we all have to do it. So he should stop complaining and concentrate on choosing rewarding hobbies to do in his spare time... Cooking? Hiking? Woodworking? Tennis? Photography? Gym? Guitar? Rock climbing? Fishing? [/quote] My mom tried this like on me and said that school would be the best time in my life and enjoy it before I had to work. The opposite was true. I loved it when school was over and work started. It was so much easier having a full time job, even a low paying one, and getting PAID. I don’t understand how parents tell kids school is there job when they are sitting there, all day, and then have HW and don’t get paid. [/quote]
