Grrrrrrrrrrrr. Today I received an email from my oldest daughter Hannah's algebra II teacher. I despise emails from teachers. Especially hers because I am soooooo not used to negative comments about Hannah. Candidly...yes 60% of my children have caused negative emails...but for THIS child, it's a rarity.Her work is not being turned in on time...and if it is, it's incomplete. Now, I cannot easily add 3+48. Seriously. And I never completed any math class more difficult than Cowboy Math...where I think my D counted towards high school graduation and that same grade (and same class) counted towards my undergraduate degree. But there were NEVER expectations of me regarding academics like there are with Hannah.
There are high possiblities for this kid. President Hannah. Yell leader Hannah. Pulitzer Prize Winning author...well...lots of stuff. But if she continues letting things slide, she'll never live my -- err -- her dreams.
