This Kid

This kid has the worst life. He's bored. There's nothing to do. Then I give him stuff to do and he doesn't want to do that either.

Spelling was his undoing today. Last week, he did Bible, math, reading, and social studies. Today we added spelling. He was supposed to do one page in the book which consisted of writing his ten words in the word shaped boxes and then writing them again. It was the only writing he did all day. But he acted as if he were dying. Hw whined that his S's looked like 5's and his U looked like a V. I told him it didn't matter but he was insistent that he couldn't and shouldn't be writing all those words. Finally, I told him if he could finish that page, with no whining, in 10 minutes, he could play PS2. He finished in five minutes.
