[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a weird post.  He's supposed to be studying for the December 10th ACT on Thanksgiving? [/quote]

Studying...working on essays...common app...volunteering...reading. Something. Anything. They're flat broke and the kid is a lazy sack of shit acting like the tuition money is going to fall from the sky.[/quote]

He's a HS senior.  How many times has he taken this test before?  Maybe he has already done a prep class and maybe he has already read the ACT prep books.

Maybe he already has decent scores and is going in there rested and confident to see if he can do a little better on the retake.

Leave the kid alone.  Seriously.  It's possible that he is well aware of the financial situation and he's got community college in mind for the time being - so not feeling the pressure.[/quote]

We've talked to him for hours since we've been here. He's walking around like the scholarship money falls from the sky. Parents are delusional.[/quote]
