Is Jr 10? Trying to remember. If yes, then welcome to the world of hormones. He'll be on a roller coaster.

Yes, he's 10. He's an emotional child anyways. :killmenow:

Yeah our 10 year old was a nightmare for a bit until we figured out how to get through it now knowing the signs, yelling doesn't work. Just talking to him calmly and quietly and we've controlled the outbursts. Was a shock to the system cuz he's soooooooooo laid back.

Yeah, some faggot on YouTube that things Subarus are the end all be all

Redundant statement is redundant

I see the light! Never again will I own one of them. Although fun and better than the bus it was a point in my life where I was young and dumb.

Yeah, I can't really yell in the morning cause there are still people sleeping upstairs. I will have to figure this one out. Problem is, that its getting nice and he just wants to play outside. Forgets he has homework and doesn't wanna do it. Then in the morning "oh Mom I have homework" Ugh.

Does his school use planners? Ours has planners. JJ was notorious for turning in late assignments at the beginning of the year. Now we utilize the planners. His teacher and I would both sign off on it and it cured the late assignments and "forgetting" about homework. Now we are to the point that he walks in the door from school, does his homework right away without me asking and I just glance at the planner to make sure that he got all the work done. Saved the sanity and the yelling.

If you don't have the planners, maybe just a notebook would work?

He does have a planner, we use it, but he didn't write in there this assignment that he was hiding from me.

I need to find a different way though cause he destroys the planner. He likes to rip the corners of the paper. I need to work on his organizational skills.

Being a parent is so much "fun" sometimes.
