17-year-old student constantly insults his 26-year-old English teacher’s intelligence: ‘I’m not sure how to write an essay that’s simple enough for you.’
We all went to school with some know-it-all kids who thought they were smarter than everyone there, including the teacher. I have empathy for kids who are genuinely advanced and don’t have the opportunity to take AP classes or other challenging coursework. If a kid is actually extremely bored and unchallenged by school, it can …

Mom refuses to pick up her ex-husband’s 8-year-old affair baby from school while picking up her 8-year-old son: ‘My ex’s daughter was there until 7 because I refused to pick her up’
A lot of divorced parents don’t want anything to do with their exes’ «other family,» and I don’t begrudge them for that. If the divorce was amicable and a parent is involved in their children’s half-siblings’ or step-siblings’ lives, that’s all well and good. As long as they can do that without resenting the kids …

‘It takes a village’: Entitled woman lists neighbor as her son’s emergency contact without permission and threatens to end their sons’ friendship when neighbor confronts her, after receiving multiple surprise calls from his school
You can make eye contact with someone passing by on the street, yet you do not get down on one knee and propose to them. You can help an elderly lady cross the street, yet you do not sign a contract to become their full-time caregiver. So why in the world would this mother make …

Homeschool mom inquires about homeschool groups that go from 7:30-4 where she doesn’t have to do much teaching: ‘Do you mean school?’
Contrary to popular belief, homeschooling doesn’t always consist of a parent teaching their children by themself at home. This is the archetypal image of a homeschooling family: waking up late, doing math in their pajamas, with mom serving as the teacher. However, there are many other ways to educate children from outside of a public …

High strung mom asks tutor to teach her 3-year-old son math for 4 hours a week: ‘How long does it usually take for him to get better?’
Kids need the opportunity just to be kids without the pressures of academic achievement. If a toddler shows interest in reading, that’s an excellent opportunity to expand their world through literacy. But if a 3-year-old can’t read yet and doesn’t seem particularly ready/interested in reading, that doesn’t mean you have to hire a team of …

Folks always talk about how much they’d love having a twin if they could. While it may be a novelty—you know, having another half of you that hung out in the womb with you for nine months—it definitely isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. How do you differentiate yourself from them? Can you manage to be …

Homeschooling stepmom pressures mom into homeschooling her 8 and 9-year-old children, claims her 4 kids are jealous that they go to public school: ‘Nicole said it is unfair for her children to see mine go to school while hers do not’
Public school is not perfect. Many public school students leave school with a less-than-stellar grasp of basic concepts that should be second nature by the time they’re 18. However, I resent the idea that all public schools are cesspools of low morals and mediocre education. I’d venture to say that many parents who enroll their …

16-year-old rebuffs absent dad when he breaks down about missing her high school graduation: ‘He said I was punishing him for being human’
