Tonight was the open house at both boys’ school.
First we went to Younger Boy’s open house. We met his teacher and saw where his desk was going to be located. He found out his best friend is in his class and will be sitting two seats behind him. He was excited about that. Older Boy spent his time “parenting”. No matter what I did he insisted on answering every question the teacher asked Younger Boy. Younger Boy did a good job of keeping his cool, but I could tell it was frustrating him.
Next we went to Older Boy’s school. We got his class schedule. He was disappointed to find out that he wasn’t enrolled in Acoustic Guitar. He is enrolled in Drama. Since I don’t have educational rights I wonder who helped him with this. Was it the State? Who thought it was a good idea for him to take drama?
We walked around the school to make sure he could find all of his classrooms. We also went to his locker. He DOES NOT have the manual dexterity to open a combination lock. I had him try, because he is going to need to do it on Monday. He tried once. It didn’t open. He kicked the locker…denting it. He was furious with me when I made him keep trying until he got it open. There were TONS of other kids there having the same thing with their caregivers, but Older Boy was the only one getting violent.
Prayers for a good school year.
